Blockchain as a very young technology (10 years) provides a great opportunity for underrepresented minorities to break in early and have an impact by increasing diversity. So what makes it so exciting to work in the Blockchain ecosystem? What does it take to succeed in the area and how could you break into this area?

This event, in partnership with Crypto Valley Conference 2019, invites you to listen to a panel of members of the Blockchain ecosystem from different areas sharing their views and provide insights. Following the panel, we are excited to invite you to the launch of the newly established eLearning platform by Hochschule Luzern. In the workshop following the panel, you will be introduced to the Blockchain Technology and get your hands-on experience supported by experts.
