What is Plan ₿ Spring School and how to enroll to it

The B4B project, which will train mostly local professionals on the use of Bitcoin and blockchain in their businesses, after just becoming official, almost went sold out

 

Officially launched on March 10th, with 30 slots available; sold out just six days later and relaunched with a further 30 seats that are already selling out: we are talking about another important educative component among those envisaged by Lugano’s ₿ Plan, i.e. the B4B – Blockchain for Business – or Spring School, aimed at those who, thereabout Lugano, deal with economics, finance and law. 

 

B4B is the result of an agreement signed by the City of Lugano and Tether with all of the universities in the Canton of Ticino (USI, SUPSI, Franklin University) through their respective representatives (Luca Maria Gambardella, Emanuele Carpanzano and Kim Hildebrant), who are thus consolidating their collaboration, such training path is dedicated to local professionals, and aims to lead them towards a theoretical-practical knowledge of Bitcoin and Blockchain technology.

 

The didactic activities, delivered by an exceptional faculty of teachers, will cover both IT and regulatory aspects, as well as accounting and taxation, providing an essential background for using it as a working tool.

 

The course, which will provide participants with basic, intermediate and advanced knowledge, comprises 16 hours of lectures spread over 4 blocks (Friday 21 and 28 April, Friday 12 and 26 May 2023), and will be held by, among others:
