About Investing in blockchain-related technologies from a women’s #perspectives

To invest or not to invest in blockchain related technologies? That is the question.

In March, #perspectives hosted an event called "Introducing Blockchain from a Woman's Perspective" that brought 50+ educated women (and a few men) together in an intimate setting with some food and wine to talk about what blockchain is, what companies and countries are adopting it, how different industries are being impacted by it and what our world’s influencers think about it.

On July 20th, #perspectives will be taking the blockchain conversation one step further and talking about whether or not we should invest in blockchain related technologies and if so how we should do it.

To pull it off we are inviting 5 unique panelists to the stage to ask them some intimate questions about how and why they started investing, and continue to invest, in blockchain related technologies both as individuals and as professionals.
