Beyond Crypto: Blockchain in Real World Applications
In a world of Sam Bankman-Frieds and Craig Wrights…. CML thought it was time to highlight those who are using blockchain technology to build for GOOD!
Scams and bad actors are what often make for sensationalist headlines, but those of us in the industry know there are tons of projects solving real world issues.
For June, we are excited to collab with Solana's Superteam UK to bring you a keynote talk from Divya Prashanth, Founder of JurnyOn, a multimodal ticketing app using NFTs and blockchain technology to revolutionize public transport.
Hear from Divya as she talks us through what inspired her to start JurnyOn, her path to funding- including receiving the super competitive and highly sought after Innovate UK grant- how she explained NFTs to the government (lol), and where she thinks we’re headed in terms of mass adoption of the public sector.
We’ll also welcome Katie Harries from Coinbase to hear about their Stand with Crypto initiative and have DVin on hand to give out glasses of champagne via their NFT minting activation.
Meet keynote speaker Divya Prashanth
