Women in Blockchain Series - Event #1

Let's celebrate the upcoming International Women's Day by having a conversation about what it means to be a woman in blockchain! We'll come together to discuss how to overcome challenges personally and more broadly as a community to build a more equitable society. The focus will be on actions we can all take individually, and anything we collectively decide we should focus on as a Women in Blockchain community, to help move the needle towards a better future for all of us. We look forward to a great discussion. OUR SPECTACULAR PANELISTS ARE:
