A Blockchain Startup – The Building Blocks
June 20, 2019 @ 5:45 pm - 8:00 pm CDT
$25.00
Is a blockchain startup any different from another startup? What are some of the challenges?
In this week’s workshop, learn the dos and don’ts of starting a new project in the Blockchain space. Hear what challenges are facing founders today and how to overcome them. Startups deal with the already monumental task of being a “startup,” mix in the added challenge of a new technology, and the odds are compounded against them to gain any sort of traction in the marketplace.
Join us as we share strategy, practical experience and ways to navigate your startup in the world of blockchain.
