Brought 30 friends from around the world to Paris, just to go for a run with me 🏃 Okay, there was a bit more to it... 😅 Last week was @Ledger Op3n, and for the second year in a row, Ledger N3XT brought students into the room: 30 students from 13 blockchain clubs, two packed days in Paris. They weren’t just in the audience. They moderated panels with industry speakers, built during the hackathon, heard Ledger’s announcements first-hand, and spent time with founders, builders and investors they wouldn’t have met otherwise. And Paris did the rest: - a morning run alongside the Seine, - snails and bœuf bourguignon at a French restaurant, - and an after party some of them had heard about before even landing. For many, it was their first time in Europe. What came back the most: the people, and the memories. New friends from campuses they didn’t know 48 hours before. For me, education goes way beyond a class on campus. Learning the ecosystem from the inside, and growing as a person. Both count. Then these students bring it all back to their campus, their club, their peers. They’re going to shape this industry, and their voice belongs in its biggest moments now. That’s what we do with Ledger N3XT, with nearly 70 clubs worldwide, all year long. Thank you to every student who made the trip, and to everyone at Ledger who made time for them 🙏 One last big one coming in November 👀
