NEM Participated at Institute of Blockchain Singapore's Official Launch

ABBEY: We were studying blockchain technology for a while now and we’re also building a community here in Singapore. Then we came to know Institute of Blockchain Singapore founded by Alvin Chua. The institute aims spread awareness of blockchain and its uses by educating the public.

With that advocacy, we helped by volunteering on the time of its launch last July 29 at The Bridge (Science Park). It is a Sunday but the attendance reached a hundred.

Attendees came from a variety of industries like marketing, finance, healthcare, legal, as well as academia.

NEM Blockchain gave a thorough talk regarding their platform and included a demo. It even rewarded some guests with XEMs.

WILL: I was challenged by the NEM Southeast Asia Project Director and of course, I gladly accepted it.  

I am not a tech person, unlike Abbey, that is why I am very fond of using the NEM Nano Wallet. It is like the "Apple" of blockchain industry. All I need to do is type and click and I can easily communicate with the NEM blockchain. On my IBS talk, I shared my enthusiasm to the attendees. They were surprised that it is how easy to do a coin or "mine" (harvest) at NEM. Because it is a timed talk, I think I explained too fast! But when I asked for a participant to create his own coin, he'd done it as if it is not his first time to see the NEM mosaics. I do hope, many attendees learn and feel my love and happiness while sharing the beauty of NEM Platform. 

Thanks Institute of Blockchain Singapore in inviting the NEM Singapore team on your official launch. We wish you more power and more students to be a developer/coder. We all know that we needed a lot of them.

Will's First Personal Finance Talk

ABBEY: Wilma gave her talk last October 1. Her topic? "How to get what you want?". Simple question with simple answer: Know what you want and get it. But do you really know what you want? And are you doing actions to get it? Watch the video and please take action.

WILL: "One thing at a time", that is our motto in goals we are eyeing to. After Abbey's talk last June on how to change your perspective in life, kuya Rex scheduled me for October's Finance Talk. It's time to give back. 

I do hope that I have enlightened some and have encouraged them to what I have discussed to achieve their goals. 

Abbey and I found some men that wants to invest on our future project. Yey! 'Till next time. I am looking forward to pitch our projects to qualified investors some day. :) 

Enjoy the video.

Abbey's First Speaking Engagement

ABBEY: Wilma "volunteered" me to speak in newbie session. I was nervous knowing the fact that I'll give a talk and what am I supposed to talk about. I chose the topic of conditioning the mind.

As I observe that people nowadays are overloaded with information towards personal finance and investments are everywhere. But knowing your purpose and changing the way you think is a whole different topic. I'm scared of what would be my audience's reactions, or if they would participate, or would they get lessons from me.

Then the day has come, June 4. I was early at the venue and people started to fill the room. The session went smoothly and I'm glad about the outcome. I reviewed my recording and I can say that I can improve. Till next time!

WILL: For 5 years, we never had a dull moment. We always talk about our day, our job, our business, our finances, our next escapade and most specially our dreams.

If you knew who Abbey was before, maybe you will ask him "What potion did you drink that made you of what you are now?". And with that, I want him to share to people what are the things he have done to achieve the "new" Abbey. The Abbey that is full of confidence and aspiration in life. Abbey that is spreader of positivity. Abbey that is a dreamer and not a hot-tempered/whiner.

And on his talk, I hope many people will not only open their mind to change themselves but to actually do it for their betterment and people around them.

See you again on Abbey's next talk. Vo-volunteer ko ulit sya. Haha!
