The Aventus team had the distinct pleasure of presenting at the Ethereum London MeetUp on 16/06/2017. The London Ethereum Meetup was, to date, the largest Ethereum meetup to take place globally. Notable presenters were Gavin Wood, founder of Parity, Polkadot, and co founder of Ethereum; as well as Christoph Jentzsch, founder and CEO of Slock.it and the Charity-Dao.

The Aventus team had the opportunity to describe various aspects of the Aventus Protocol ranging from the various protocol layers, existing problems within the global ticketing industry, and the proposed solutions eliminating counterfeit tickets and unregulated secondary markets. Rather than tackling the problems within the ticketing industry from a technological standpoint (although there is most definitely a technological solution incorporated within the Aventus protocol) the Aventus team has focused on economically disincentivizing counterfeit ticket distributors and secondary resellers.
