BLOKC's Raine Laluna to Speak at Girls in ICT Event

The BLOKC is bringing Web3 education to the next generation of women in technology. On April 25, 2024, BLOKC's own Raine Laluna will take the stage at Sisters of Mary - Girlstown as a featured speaker at the Girls in ICT event — a celebration dedicated to empowering young women to become future leaders in the tech industry.

Raine will deliver a talk titled "Web3 Beyond Crypto: The Next Gen Tech and Its Benefits," offering the audience a broader perspective on what Web3 truly represents. Far more than just cryptocurrency, Web3 encompasses a new wave of internet technologies — from decentralized applications and smart contracts to digital ownership and trustless systems — all of which carry real-world benefits for everyday users.

The session aims to break down common misconceptions about blockchain and Web3, making the technology accessible and relevant to young women who may be exploring their future in the digital space. Whether attendees are seasoned tech enthusiasts or simply curious about where the internet is headed, Raine's talk promises to be both informative and inspiring.

Joining Raine on the program are two other remarkable women in tech from Cebu, who will share their own experiences and insights navigating the technology industry. Together, the speakers aim to paint a compelling picture of why tech — and Web3 in particular — is one of the most exciting and opportunity-rich fields to step into today.

The Girls in ICT event is part of a global initiative recognizing the importance of gender inclusion in Information and Communications Technology. BLOKC's participation reflects the organization's ongoing commitment to inclusive blockchain education and its mission to ensure that Web3 knowledge reaches diverse communities across the Philippines.

If you're in Cebu and passionate about technology, empowerment, or simply curious about the future of the web — this is one event you won't want to miss.
