Attaining Personal Freedom with a Decentralized Identity and Blockchain Technology

Marie Poteriaieva fell down the crypto rabbit hole over 5 years ago, progressively realizing how a 9-page Whitepaper could change the world. 3 years ago she quit her job in fashion to dedicate herself to the research on all things blockchain together with her associate. The results of this research took the form of a mindmap easily explaining crypto-related notions, which was published on a newly created d.center <https://d.center/> website. D.Center now is a crypto education company, animating its website with both theoretical content and the analysis of the newest crypto events, as well as providing blockchain-related trainings. However, it has far-going ambitions in bringing crypto knowledge to the masses, and many more cool features are to come. Join the discussion on the future of crypto on D.Center’s pages on <https://www.linkedin.com/company/dcenter> LinkedIn, <https://twitter.com/DCenter_Explore> Twitter or <https://www.facebook.com/d.center.all.things.blockchain> Facebook!

The innovation mindset: It’s not just about the tech

When we talk about innovation, oftentimes we think about those in technology. But innovation goes beyond artificial intelligence, robotics, and quantum computing. Beyond the bits and bytes, it is also about changing mindsets and thinking critically and differently. It is about being comfortable with the uncomfortable. It is about allowing ourselves the time and opportunity to learn to be clumsy and to embrace failure as part of our journey.  In this episode of One Vision, Theo chats with Jennifer Sertl, Founder and President of Agility3R and Adjunct Professor at RIT, on innovation and the importance of cross-pollination. Perhaps it’s time to slow down and imagine a little.
