The German blockchain landscape is diverse
In addition to Bundesblock, a series of regional groups have formed, that support the blockchain and web3 scene on a local level. The associations and groups host local meet-ups and workshops, organise educational offers, network companies and are contact persons for blockchain enthusiasts.
The federal bloc has its own Slack channel for representatives of the regional groups (if you are interested, please write to info@bundesblock.de) and is happy to organise joint events.
If requested, we are happy to put you in touch with various initiatives. Among them are the following associations:
Blockchain Association Schleswig-Holstein e.V.
It is our concern to spread the understanding of this novel and versatile technology in society and to encourage people to engage with blockchain-based application areas. We want to get people excited about blockchain technology by sharing knowledge and creating an environment for interaction and networking!
