Join CU and IBM in Boulder for a presentation around the Hyperledger Workshop and Boot Camp that will be part of the Denver Blockchain Week. About this event To help kick off Denver Blockchain Week and build-up to the Global Blockchain Summit, the University of Colorado Blockchain Alliance is excited to announce that IBM will be coming to the University of Colorado Boulder to provide a guided tour of the IBM Blockchain platform led by their technical experts and get your questions answered by IBM Blockchain leaders.

Free parking available at the law school after 5 p.m.

The Global Blockchain Summit is the cornerstone of Denver Blockchain Week, a gathering of experts from around the country sharing knowledge, tips, trends, and insights about Blockchain, a breakthrough technology that enables the trusted digital registration & exchange of just about anything. It will be a chance for the newcomer to learn the history and basics of this emerging technology, and for the familiar to learn more about its current and future applications. Money, music, health records, car titles, certificates, company ownership, deeds, & digital identities are just a few options. The format will be less traditional than a typical conference. There will be large group presentations, small group lectures, lightning round discussions as well as time to interact with others in the field. We are striving to make this the most valuable Global Blockchain Summit for you, the participant. We have an emphasis on Global Women in Blockchain, equality, and diversity for the 2019 Summit.

Join Hyperledger and IBM ambassadors as we explore Hyperledger in an intensive workshop. About this event What is a Bootcamp/Workshop?

A bootcamp/workshop is where we help get community members up to speed on how to contribute. Most of the participants are fairly new and we understand that contributing to your first project can be daunting. This process takes the fear out of the process. For existing contributors and maintainer, this is the ideal place to recruit more help for your project or group.

Who should attend and why?

Anyone that wants to contribute. This includes: developers, designers, writers, organizers, artists, and of course project managers. Anyone that needs contributions. There isn’t a better place to recruit and get to know new participants. Don’t limit yourself to thinking the only contributions you need at first are code! Most contributors start out by fixing documentation and creating or flushing our bug reports. Then they often move to fixing small bugs before making larger contributions. Also an OSS community doesn’t thrive if it isn’t diverse. You need writers, designers, and project managers etc. Include them in your plans.

What to bring?

Laptop, power cord and comfortable clothing. This hands-on workshop requires several gigabytes of downloads to participate. Please go to the following link and complete the `Prerequisites` Section which asks you to install Docker and Node, as well as download a git code repository and run a script to pull the required docker images.
