LATAM BLOCKCHAIN GROUP

LATAM Blockchain Group is a startup founded by two South American entrepreneurs in order to boost and create a blockchain ecosystem in the region. South American countries are known for falling behind in technological advancements such as the internet and mobile. Blockchain, cryptocurrencies, and DLT technologies offer a more transparent, decentralized, and faster transaction of data and information across borders. South American citizens have been victims of hyperinflation, corruption, econom... ic disasters and political instability. As with most big tech companies, not so many blockchain projects have set their eyes on the Latin American continent for varied reasons, problems, and resources. We want to change that, thus we believe with education, we will be able to create entrepreneurs, students, and professionals hungry to thrive in this disruptive wave, thus creating an ecosystem of talented individuals to compete with leading countries in the industry and resolve some of South Americans biggest flaws. Latinos have 65% mobile penetration and 55% of its citizens are unbanked. Together with Lumit Blockchain and Blockchain at Berkeley, we launched an online e-learning platform called Academia 21 to educate Latinos about blockchain in Spanish and offer courses for blockchain development, fundamentals, business use cases, smart contracts, token economics, investing, token creation and more. Our vision is to be the gateway of blockchain powered solutions to South American governments and companies within the supply chain management, healthcare, and real estate industries.More
