Jeff McDonald, the Vice President of the NEM Foundation greeted the participants through a video conference call as he was unable to attend the meetup but was able to answer questions from participants. The NEM Foundation bountied 100XEM to participants who were successful in installing the NEM NanoWallet or mobile Android/iOS app and sharing a QR.
