          <by role="member" id="4338">The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL (Dunstan—Premier) (14:24):</by>  I don't have the details with me, but I know that we had over 400 people who attended, many of them from South Australia from the tech sector, who were excited by the potential for blockchain. There were many from interstate and many from overseas. It was exciting to have many global speakers here in South Australia talking about the potential for blockchain. We see it being used by some of the largest companies in the world at the moment. Some of our largest Australian companies are looking at it for applications, like smart contracts, elections and many other applications. We are very keen to learn from these and position South Australia at the forefront of future industries in Australia.</text>
