There are few women in tech, and there are few women in finance, and when you put them together, you have even less. We started CryptoWomen in the fall of 2017 in Denmark as a reaction to the lack of gender diversity around us. Our mission is to make the crypto and blockchain space more welcoming to women, and we aim to do that through events and workshops. Our Wondertech Summit workshop will be about one of the fastest evolving spaces, blockchain, where we will touch upon: The potential of blockchain technology to benefit women and Attracting more women into the space. We will give a brief presentation followed by a Q&A session.
