Blockchain is poised to transform the way we live and work, and so much of the exciting energy pioneering the movement lives right in our backyard.

Join thousands of founders, developers, academics and students during Boston Blockchain Week (April 23–27) to celebrate the innovative research and companies that call the Boston / Cambridge home.

Local universities including MIT, Harvard, BU and Northeastern are leading the charge on cryptographic research, and the Boston / Cambridge area is a breeding ground for blockchain innovation. To highlight this important work, Pillar and over a dozen organizations will partner to present Boston Blockchain Week, hosting talks, lectures, developer training sessions, and events with thought leaders who are driving the evolution of blockchain and cryptocurrency.

Boston Blockchain Week is already packed with eleven (11) events, with more to be announced during the next few weeks.
