Tezos Meetup!

Welcome to London’s very first Tezos meetup. Tezos is a utility cryptocurrency on which secondary platforms and applications can be built through their smart contract system. Tezos aims to build on and improve from weaknesses shown in its predecessors. More details about Tezos will be explained at the event so don’t miss it.

The event structure will be as follows:

Attendees are set to arrive at 7:15pm and the talks will begin at 7:30.

From 7:30pm to 9pm there will be 3 talks from different members of the Tezos community.

The talks will be related to the development of Tezos itself from a developer’s point of view, the investment and growth of different projects built on Tezos and some actual examples of companies that are building applications on Tezos with an insight into how they work and their functionality.

One of the speakers will be Stephen Yang of Owlstand LTD. which is an online art gallery built on Tezos that allows users to view exquisite art in an exhibition style online; creating a live feel to it. Stephen also invests in other projects related to Tezos and will share his experiences and some ideas on improving the consensus of the Proof of Stake system.

Another speaker is Suraj Tirupati who is working on a project called BettingWin. BettingWin is designed to be a global betting exchange that surpasses the borders of various countries by accommodating the differing betting laws through Tezos smart contracts. Suraj will share information on how BettingWin is designed to work, some of its key features and what elements of Tezos enable such a project.

Richard Jones of Red Hat will be giving a talk on some of the work he is doing with OCaml. OCaml is the programming language that Tezos is built with.

Free pizza and beer will be available from 9pm onwards for all attendees where we will hold an hour-long networking session for attendees to have a chat with the speakers and among themselves. This is a fantasti networking opportunity to meet fellow people interested in Tezos and to learn and educate oneself!

The event will be recorded including members of the audience and their questions. If you do not want to be recorded please contact us via stephen@owlstand.com or suraj@bettingwin.online
