The bi-monthly "Networking before Nine" series is back and powered by Google! This virtual event provides a great opportunity for networking (including the chance to give a 30-second introduction of yourself and business to the whole group) and will cover technology and regional issues.
Representatives from Google will share updates on their latest innovative tech products and services.
We’ll then hear from Paul McNeal, Owner of the Crypto Curator, who will walk us through blockchain technology. Blockchain technology "makes the history of any digital asset unalterable and transparent through the use of digitalization and cryptographic hashing. He will explain why enterprise blockchain is not dead and how it can possibly benefit your organization.
