We (EU-Startups) joined forces with the Frankfurt School Blockchain Center to organise the first edition of the Blockchain Startups Summit on November 15 in Frankfurt. The event will gather around 300 entrepreneurs, investors, and blockchain service providers from across Europe to discuss the present and future use of blockchain technology in the startup space and financial sector.
The event will count on the participation of top-notch entrepreneurs and investors. The speaker line-up, which is currently building up, includes names like Vanessa Grellet (ConsenSys), Marjan Delatinne (Ripple), Philipp Sandner (FSBC), Nikola Stojanow (aeternity) and Sven Laepple (Astratum). As part of exciting talks and panels, the speakers will tackle some of the most interesting topics in the blockchain space today – for example, the advantages and disadvantages of ICOs versus traditional VC funding or in which cases the blockchain is adding real value to startups and in which cases it might be just used because it’s trendy.
The Blockchain Startups Summit will also showcase an exciting pitch competition with a selection of 10 of the hottest European blockchain-based startups, which get the opportunity to win an attractive prize package.
