BitAngels San Juan Blockchain Event

​Join us at BitAngels San Juan for a great evening of powertalks and pitches, this time at Holberton Coding School in Santurce, Puerto Rico. You will love the venue, where the island's next generation of leading-edge coders is bred, at the tech and creative heart of Santurce, across from Ciudadela, next to Bookmark.
