Workshop and Brunch with Partech and NEAR
You are warmly invited to Weekly Brunches, a series of events held every Saturday. These events aim to provide students with guidance, connections, and support in bringing their ideas to life over the year. The events begin with a brunch, followed by two streams of (1) entrepreneurial and (2) technical workshops. The objective is to bring together students who have diverse backgrounds but share entrepreneurial ambitions, and to support the best projects with opportunities for publication, hackathons, incubation, or other forms of implementation.
Entrepreneurial stream
Carlota Armero Saura is an experienced professional in the venture capital industry. Currently, she serves as a member of Partech's Seed team. With a strong background in supporting early-stage founders, Carlota's passion for entrepreneurship was further fueled during her time as the first employee at a VC-backed consumer startup in Berlin. Before that, she gained valuable experience working with various startups and VC firms in London, primarily focusing on B2B and enterprise SaaS. Carlota holds a degree in Management from the London School of Economics, where she actively contributed to shaping the LSE accelerator program, sparking her interest in the world of venture and startups.
Technical stream
Owen Hassall is the Developer Relations at near/dev/hub. He is also a co-founder of VEX, an Esports project that is currently being developed on NEAR. In addition, Owen serves as the President of the Leeds Blockchain Society. He is a Theoretical Physics student with a strong passion for Quantum Computing.
This workshop will build upon the first NEAR workshop from February 10th (Building a simple smart contract on NEAR). You will connect the back-end to the front-end to create a fully functional application across the entire stack.
No prerequisites are required.
The events are co-hosted with Cambridge Blockchain Society.
