Krypto for Kids conference coming to Barbados

Three years on since its debut, Krypto for Kids is coming to Barbados.

Blockchain on the Beach – an educational gathering exploring blockchain technology – has partnered with several regional entities, including the University of the West Indies at Cave Hill for the conference geared toward young people and highlighting financial literacy and emerging technologies.

The invitation-only program will welcome 100 attendees in person and is encouraging interested parents, teachers and those curious about blockchain, to participate.

SHEQONOMI, a global multi-platform podcast listening app built by women and powered by girls, is the main producer of Blockchain on the Beach Barbados and Krypto for Kids Caribbean.

Shontelle Layne, who is the Co-Chair of Krypto for Kids, told CBC TV8’s The Morning Report they are ensuring Barbados is not left behind with the advances in technology.

Speakers from the Caribbean, the United States, Canada and across Latin America will join the event to share their expertise on blockchain, cryptocurrency, and Web3 and share the emerging technology with a new generation of digital leaders.
