We did a live podcast to interact and engage with our community and the wider blockchain community in Dubai. We allowed the audience to pitch in their thoughts and questions at any point during the panel to allow for an interactive discussion.

The topics were also chosen by the community too! On the registration form, we allowed the attendees to pick three topics out of 5 we picked and the three that were chosen were:

1. Blockchain in the GCC
2. State and future of adoption
3. Blockchain start-up investments

This is our longest episode where we, as a community, discussed many different factors of our ecosystem and we hope you will enjoy this.
