Diversity in Blockchain founders host a live virtual panel discussion on Blockchain Weekly.

Shawnna Hoffman (IBM), Anna Ashurov (Goldman Sachs), Michelle Gitlitz (Blank Rome), Joshua Ashley Klayman Kuzar (Morrison & Foerster), and Susan Joseph (B31 North America) came together on Blockchain Weekly, a live interactive video chat forum hosted by Michael Noel every Wednesday at 2 PM ET, to introduce their non-profit, Diversity in Blockchain, an organization incubated by MIT Law committed to creating equal, open, and inclusive opportunities in the blockchain industry.

The founders were broadcasted on the virtual stage using Shindig’s fluid Share the Stage feature. As they “passed the mic” each co-founder talked about their current roles and what inspired them to enter the blockchain market. They also discussed how and why they came together to form Diversity in Blockchain. Basically, they were approached by MIT after a panel discussion back in October 2017 “to save them from themselves” and drive equal participation and distribution by empowering everyone to engage with blockchain technology.

Online audience members were highly engaged with the panel showing their support and enthusiasm while participating in the Q&A portion of the event. The Diversity in Blockchain founders were able to collectively create an online event mimicking a real-life panel discussion, sans travel time or cost, generating excitement and participation for Diversity in Blockchain and carrying out their mission to create an inclusive blockchain environment through education, discussion, and engagement.

Diversity in Blockchain encourages all like-minded individuals to join their innovative, collaborative, and impactful organization. Register here.
