In order to bring us all together, to learn and share interests for this new interdisciplinary field of research and to foster collaboration, we are starting the "Blockchain Research Zürich" meetup and you are cordially invited!
The inaugural first edition is on Tuesday, 17 April, 18:00-21:00 in HG D7.1
Please bring colleagues and interested fellow students! Please help us plan the Apéro and let us know that you come.
We thought it would be nice for the first edition to not only showcase a few projects but also give a broader overview what is going on at ETH and UZH.
