Surprise!

As you probably know by now, we co-founded the Blockchain Alliance Europe, an international organization that strives to transform Slovenia — and Europe, for that matter — into a global blockchain destination. A fine thing to set things in motion! But not just as smashing as what comes next. We’re extremely proud to say the Blockchain Alliance Europe, ConsenSys and the Government of the Republic of Slovenia are organizing the first European Blockchain Summit yet — with the blockchain pioneer and superstar Joseph Lubin as a keynote speaker!

VIP on board

That’s right. Joseph Lubin, a blockchain big wheel who co-founded Ethereum, the second-largest public blockchain by total value, and scored a billion-dollar fortune in the process is coming to Slovenia. Apart from being one of the leading decision-makers in the business and, rumor has it, the single-largest hodler of Ether, he’s also the founder of ConsenSys, one of the fastest growing decentralized organizations that consists of over 37 companies in several different industries! Meaning, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see and listen to one of the key players in the business and one that knows Ethereum so well that deciphering its potential, to him, is as easy as ABC.

Sick line-up

In a series of speeches and panels, he’ll be joined by other major opinion-makers of the industry, who will discuss a variety of topics from the European blockchain initiatives and the blockchain & ICO regulation to the blockchain applicability and the funding opportunities for European blockchain companies. Good stuff! Other A-list names include Holm Keller, Executive Chairman and CEO of the kENUP Foundation, Ralf Glabischnig, Co-founder of the Crypto Valley Labs, and Stefan Klauser, Lead Strategist of Digital Society and Finance 4.0 at ETH Zurich. Not to mention our dear friend and incredible celebrity ambassador Imogen Heap, also known to be an early adopter of the blockchain, who will be taking the stage to discuss blockchain applicability, particularly in the framework of the music business.

The Summit will take place on April 11, 2018, at the Brdo Congress Centre in Slovenia, and let’s just say it’s going to be HUGE! From world-class experts to government officials, we can safely assume the future of blockchain is a bright one. Let’s see what it has in store.
