📣🚨 ACT NOW | 3 Out Of 3 Blockchain Expo World Series Events Don't Have Enough Women Speakers
The Blockchain Expo World Series is made up of three conferences and exhibitions, the first of which, Blockchain Expo North America, begins today. Attendees will experience “two days of top-level content from leading brands, embracing and developing cutting edge blockchain technologies” delivered almost exclusively by men — 84% of the speakers are men and only 16% are women, 33% of whom are women of color. And to make matters worse, 38% of the panels are manels!
The remaining two expos in the series, Blockchain Expo Global in March 2020 and Blockchain Expo Europe in July 2020, are looking equally as bad with speaker lineups made up of approximately 80% men and 20% women. It’s too late to improve Blockchain Expo North America, but there is plenty of time to add more women to the lineups of the other two expos. Consider yourselves on our radar, Block Expo World Series. We’ll be watching to see what improvements you make, if any.
