1st Asia Symposium Roundtable

When: Friday, September 10th, 2pm - 6pm KST (Korean Standard Time)

Where: Remote

Participants: By invitation

Purpose:  To encourage blockchain & crypto scholarship in Asia related to policy, governance, law, etc. that can be shared with global audiences, in the hopes of bridging East-West silos within the space. Optional symposium papers produced following this event will be published in a future issue of the Stanford Journal of Blockchain Law & Policy, in print and online.
