Blockchain UNN Event is a university-centric blockchain conference hosted by the University of Nigeria, Nsukka (UNN). The event brings together students, academics, developers, startup founders, and industry professionals to explore how blockchain, Web3, and decentralized systems can drive social and economic transformation in Nigeria and beyond. It is designed to create a bridge between theory and practice — where ideas conceived in university labs meet real world application in fintech, governance, identity, and supply chains.
Over the course of the day or days, attendees can expect keynote addresses from leading voices in crypto and technology, panel discussions covering regulation, decentralization, and digital inclusion, as well as hands-on workshops and project showcases. Student-led teams will likely present their own blockchain prototypes or use cases, and there will be networking time intended to spark collaborations, mentorships, and startup partnerships.
The goal of Blockchain UNN is to foster a local hub of innovation. It aspires to empower young technologists in Nigeria with knowledge, connections, and the confidence to build real blockchain solutions. Whether you're deeply technical or curious about how crypto and Web3 can improve systems around you, this event offers a platform to learn, collaborate, and contribute to the region’s decentralized future.
