These online tokens can be exchanged via Peer2Peer for goods and services at places that accept them, and in some instances they can even be converted to real money. The website bitcoinme.com claims that BitCoin is the world’s first completely decentralised currency. The transaction process is not guarded by legislation, government or banking regulation, or backed by reserves. So are there risks involved? And what is BitCoin ‘mining’? Business21C Weekly explores the business of BitCoin with Bruce Wagner who hosts an online TV show about BitCoin, and economist Adam Cohen who is a hobbyist tracker of financial currency.

This is depicted in pop culture through the television show Mad Men which projects an image of the industry in the 1960s. Today this glamor still holds true but with more transparency and a technological twist. As consumers gain information through newer open sources of media, how must advertising firms reshape their targets to address the changes present in today’s society?

The conference, Creating Climate Wealth, brought together important leaders, including keynote speaker Richard Branson, to join experts from Carbon War Room to discuss ways business can make a (profitable) difference by addressing climate change. Australian industry relies heavily on the benefits that the mining and resource boom brings to the economy, but how can companies address renewable energy targets and create sustainable momentum that is cost-effective? Kirsten Lees speaks to Jigar Shah, CEO of Carbon War Room, about visionary strategies to target climate change. Janine Cahill, organiser of Creating Climate Wealth, explains what the conference hopes to achieve and how large corporations and entrepreneurs can collaborate and work out how to address a global challenge.
