• OLIVIER RIKKEN (https://www.linkedin.com/in/olivierrikken/)
  << More info will follow soon >>

• TIM JANSSEN (https://www.linkedin.com/in/timjanssen89/)
  << With a background in physics through his research at CERN, he dived deeply into cryptography.  With this, he manifested it into a passion for blockchain to understand the fundamental underpinnings.   He leverages this by developing blockchain use cases ranging from the energy sector to the financial sector.  Additionally, he follows and supports these use cases through it’s realization, whether it be go live, pilot, proof of concept or hackathon.  Through this experience, he’s often seen as a domain expert participating actively in the blockchain community by speaking at Universities, CGI, Meetups, CANON, etc. During this hyperledger meetup Tim will lead a panel discussion with other domain experts on the topic of governance and privacy. >>

• JAN BOLHUIS (https://www.linkedin.com/in/janbolhuis/)
  << Jan Bolhuis is Capgemini's Delivery Architect Director for the "Custom Software Development" business unit. Jan mainly helps clients with new technologies, including of course blockchain.
  Jan has had worldwide Blockchain roles as an Ethereum developer, CTO, Blockchain architect, consultant and business coach at smaller organizations and startups, but Jan has also advised international IT companies on technology and skills to be developed. Jan also speaks internationally at events and is in panel discussions.
  Before Jan came into contact with blockchain, Jan had many different roles, including software engineer, team lead development, architect, Lead auditor and strategic director. Jan started programming at the age of twelve, a few years before he started the Higher Informatics Education. The smart contract concept of Ethereum was what Jan actively pulled into the blockchain world. As a strong system thinker with a Masters in IT management, Jan saw the power of smart contracts for larger organizations and complex chains. It was therefore logical for Jan to become a certified Ethereum developer. Jan likes to know what he is talking about. >>
