Thursday
This day was "planning day". The challenge of the day was to complete the planning of the next two months with important appointments and events, but also with various workshops and multicultural brunches and dinners, that will be part of the 's program for the Winter Camp this year.
As a little overview, I can say that the topics of the workshops would be for example (non-exhaustive list): strategic design, communication strategy, media production, ERP tools, graphic design, website development ...
The day continued with the "weXelerate pitch night" where ,
and myself went. The evening began with a small concert of young trumpet players and saxophinist, then representatives of startups who were selected by weXelerate. After the keynote we witnessed the competition between 5 people representing their startups, who had only 3 minutes to perform their pitch. The themes were varied, the scores quite tight but finally the winner was a startup that links restaurants and suppliers via a common platform. If you need more information I can answer further question in the comments section.

And now, even if it's now the weekend, this doesn't mean that the team is not working, the work sessions continue to guarantee future students, members, partners and sponsors alike to have an experience with that is always more professional but above all personal.
This is why I remind you that the crowdfunding campaign to support steem blockchain awareness and education is still open ... Just follow this link if you want to have more information and participate.
