Building BLOKCs: Blockchain Crash Course at TUP Taguig

The BLOKC, in partnership with Solana, brought its "Building BLOKCs" initiative to the Technological University of the Philippines (TUP) Taguig on October 16, 2023, delivering an engaging Tech-Talk session titled "Blockchain Development: The Ultimate Crash Course."

The event welcomed students and tech enthusiasts eager to explore the fundamentals of blockchain development. Attendees gained practical insights into how blockchain technology works, its core principles, and the growing range of industries being transformed by its adoption. From decentralized finance to supply chain transparency, participants discovered the wide-reaching impact of this emerging technology and the opportunities it presents for the next generation of Filipino developers.

The session was designed to break down complex blockchain concepts into accessible, digestible knowledge — true to The BLOKC's mission of making Web3 education available to everyone, especially in academic communities across the Philippines.

Partnering with Solana, one of the leading high-performance blockchain networks in the space, added an extra layer of relevance to the discussion. Participants were exposed to real-world blockchain ecosystems and the kinds of development opportunities available within the Solana ecosystem and beyond.

TUP Taguig proved to be an enthusiastic host, with students actively engaging with the material and expressing interest in pursuing blockchain development as a career path.

The BLOKC continues to expand its Building BLOKCs campus tour, aiming to equip more Filipino students with the skills and knowledge needed to thrive in the Web3 economy.
