ALAX attends the first major blockchain conference in Vietnam
Over 300 professionals in Tech, Finance and Marketing met during Vietnam Blockchain Week, an event organized by Infinity Blockchain Labs in order to expand their knowledge and networks. The conference took place in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam on March 7th & 8th, 2018.
Our own Co-Founder, Matej Michalko spoke in front of a large Blockchain community of tech-savvy professionals and knowledge junkies. In his speech on the future of digital assets distribution, he discussed a number of use cases, illustrating the advantages on ALAX. The Vietnam conference hosted 1,500 participants, 50 speakers, over 500 companies and included presentations from 15 case studies.
Matej had an opportunity not only to present the project to multiple entrepreneurs and startups, but also to meet and shake hands with David Elson, one of our liaisons in Vietnam working on the ALAX project, they had an opportunity to talk in detail about our TGE which is rapidly approaching. The TGE (Token Generation Event) is planned for April 17th!
Many leaders in the industry decided to participate at the conference, for example Nguyen Hung Nguyen, CIO of the National Payment Corporation of Vietnam (NAPAS) who is responsible for IT infrastructure with the main ambition towards faster, more convenient and more secure electronic payments in Vietnam.
