Workshop Kick-off 1 - Cardano SEA Hackathon 2026
🚀 Cardano SEA Hackathon 2026 Kick-off Workshop – Session 1
Topic: “Growing Business Ideas with Blockchain & AI”
Do you have a startup idea but don’t know where to begin? Or are you interested in blockchain & AI but unsure how they can be applied in real-world scenarios?
