ABOUT BWB TOKEN EXPO 2018
During NYC Blockchain week in May 2018, the BWB summit at the Marriott Hotel in the heart of New York City was ranked as the best Blockchain Week event to attend by Silicon NYC - Tech Beat of NY, and due to that event’s stunning success, BWB is hosting another massive blockchain event here in NYC this August, this time focusing on blockchain, crypto and tokens!
What You’ll Learn
The BWB Token Expo 2018 will provide you with advanced knowledge about everything blockchain, cryptocurrency, and tokenization from experts in the field who are hand-selected by BWB and partners. You will also have access to blockchain experts and professionals that attend the Token Expo from NYC and those that traveled from around the world to be in attendance.
