Blockchain is no longer just a buzzword - itβs being used in everything from finance to healthcare, from startups to enterprise. And the best part? Itβs all happening right here in Minnesota.

We look forward to seeing you there!
I'm a Twin Cities entrepreneur and Minnebar veteran. Love building and learning, you can learn about what I'm up to at https://monkeyislandventures.com. I'm also a volunteer on the MN Blockchain Initiative board (https://www.mnblockchain.org/).
Look forward to meeting you!
Hi, I'm Brandon, president of Minnesota Blockchain Initiative (https://www.mnblockchain.org/), the state's nonprofit advocacy org. for the blockchain industry.
We host events and facilitate discussions about what's happening in the space. We work with lawmakers and business groups and the media to help education leaders on how to best integrate the technology. Then, we make our own media (videos, articles, and, hopefully soon, podcasts) and conduct our own research.
I'm also president of The Periphery Media (https://www.youtube.com/c/theperiphery), a storytelling company that likes to shine light on the people and important issues and that often go unnoticed.
