LuxTag powered by NEM Blockchain intends to educate interested students and individual developers about the creation of Blockchain-driven applications. Due to the general shortage of specialist manpower in the market of Blockchain developers, we understand that it’s crucial to facilitate education in order to secure human resources for further future growth of our business and the whole sector.
The students were invited as results of Rene Bernards presentation at the UUM university.
Special thanks go to our friend Jimmy from France, without who’s help through projection remote video and screen sharing this session would not have been possible.
