13:00 CET | Is the Blockchain Technology the new Internet?
Picture a spreadsheet that is duplicated thousands of times across a network of computers. Then imagine that this network is designed to regularly update this spreadsheet and you have a basic understanding of the blockchain. The blockchain gives internet users the ability to create value and authenticates digital information.
So, what will new Business look like? Smart contracts, Governance, File Storage, Prediction markets, Data Management, Identity Management, Crowdfunding and much more.
Let’s make this technology more accessible to everyone and let the distinction not be necessarily “how” it works but “why” it is important, why do I need it, and why is the blockchain going to be revolutionary.

14:30 CET | My Name is Penelope; Weavers of Destiny
Exploring the female perspective in filmmaking and story.
Women driven stories show how women view, alter, and change history. We need a new interpretation on what it means to be a women. In storytelling, beautiful successful women aren’t new, nor are unhappy, angry or crazy women. So we need to find a new avenue where we don’t have to be a glamourous power kitten or apologize or shy away for acting dynamically or boldly as a man would,
If we place the “camera” of our lives on how it feels to be a woman instead of how we look; would we as an audience feel differently towards her? – inspired quote from Jill Soloway
Come join our discussion and discover what it would be like to weave your own destiny. | Guest Speakers:
