Blockchain and cryptocurrencies are changing the world. The wave of adoption is much faster than the adoption of internet because people are a lot more technically savvy now thanks to widespread use of mobile devices, apps, and social media in comparison to the paradigm shift of the internet 20 years ago. Therefore whether you're a corporate executive, investor or an entrepreneur working outside the realm of blockchain and crypto puts you at a much higher risk of loss of competitive advantage as though you're creating software that does not work on the internet. 

Symmetry offers executive seminars which cover blockchain and cryptocurrencies from its highest conceptual levels all the way down to technical understanding of cryptography and implementation of cryptoeconomics.
