The first #Blockchain4GoodSummit, held last month, brought together 36 expert speakers to explore how #blockchain is supporting #climate mitigation, financial #inclusion and innovation in #food security, among other topics. The summit will be back early next year: here's a short video with some forward-looking views from speakers for now. 👇 https://lnkd.in/em7N2XrN Thanks again to all partners 🙏 : UNDP in Europe and Central Asia Blockchain for Good Alliance (BGA) BC100+ Impact Plus Sustainable ADA Project Catalyst NMKR Ben Wyeth +++ A huge thank you again too to all our speakers! 👏 Teodor Petricevic Robert Pasicko Aiaze Mitha Sandra Uwantege Hart Nigel Pont Anna Whitson-Diaz Eduard Peris i Deprez Juana Attieh Yoram Ben Zvi Glen Jordan Ben Rizo Dan Friedman Jo Allum Shantnoo Saxsena Ahmed M.

💡 What if blockchain wasn’t just another trendy tool or buzzword for the privileged few, but a gateway to a future where everyone has a seat at the table, and our planet is no longer threatened by irreversible damage❓ That’s the question we, Positiveblockchain.io, Innofund Blockchain4Good, UNDP in Europe and Central Asia, set out to explore at the inaugural Blockchain4Good Summit that brought together an inspiring mix of industry leaders, global governance representatives, tech innovators, entrepreneurs, and sustainability advocates, each sharing a common goal - harnessing the power of blockchain to tackle some of the world’s most critical challenges. 🌟 For those who couldn’t join us live, the virtual platform remains open until November 30th - you can still register and login here: www.blockchain4good.io A big thank you to my colleagues, collaborators and co-organizers Sandeep Bajjuri, Alexander Macbeth, Gabriel von Roda, Lucas Zaehringer, Maciej Bulanda, Teodor Petricevic, Robert Pasicko, Burcu Mavis, Svetla Baeva, Razali Samsudin for your dedication and support. 💙 🙏 I’m grateful to all speakers and our partners for your continued collaboration and valuable contributions Blockchain for Good Alliance (BGA), Daniel Zou (DZ), wanyu Chen, Cardano Foundation, Cardano Community, Alexandre Maaza, Sustainable ADA, Bybit, Mariana de la Roche Wills, de la Roche W. Consulting, Impact Plus, Eduard Peris i Deprez, Raquel S., BC100+, vFairs, NMKR and Al Goanna NFT Project. The primary aim of the inaugural summit was to establish a platform designed to cultivate genuine dialogue and foster impactful collaboration within the blockchain for good ecosystem, strengthening efforts to advance the Agenda 2030. 🌍 We heard powerful stories from those already utilizing blockchain to advance financial inclusion, enhance the efficiency of humanitarian aid, combat climate change, expand access to technology and education for all, foster ethical, transparent supply chains and sustainable agri-food systems – and most importantly, ensure that such innovations benefit everyone, particularly those who have been historically left behind. The most rewarding part for me was seeing how these conversations sparked new ideas, a renewed sense of purpose, and even laid the groundwork for future partnerships. 🙌 If any of these topics inspire you, please do reach out - we’d love to hear from you and explore collaboration on upcoming initiatives. 🤝   Thank you to everyone who contributed, attended, and supported - looking forward to the next editions planned for 2025 🚀

Nearly 400 session views and dozens of speakers. Most of all, we learnt so much from the first #Blockchain4GoodSummit. The next editions in April and July 2025 already have new partners signed up.
