Intro
This two-day technical workshop promises to be informative, educational, practical and fun. Join us and learn how to put zero knowledge proofs into practical use.
This is our second Zero Knowledge Proof developer workshop in London with plans to host many more in the UK and overseas. The third ZKP workshop will be held in July in London (date to be confirmed). To keep the level of teaching to a high standard, we will limit this class size to 50 delegates. There will be plenty of opportunity to attend in future should this class become oversubscribed.
Prerequisite: We require all our students to attend both days. For our students to get the most out of this workshop, it’s vitally important for our delegates to have a strong background in software engineering and a strong interest in blockchain technology. Although a major plus, no prior knowledge or experience with zero knowledge proof is required at his stage. What's important is your passion to learn about ZKP and blockchain technology.
