81  Bitcoin / Meetups / Re: The First Bitcoin Conference in Asia? on: September 28, 2013, 11:23:41 AM
Just received an email (I'm not affiliate with them) Bitcoin Singapore Conference 2013, which they claimed to be the first Bitcoin conference in Asia: http://www.bitcoinsingapore2013.com/

The early bird ticket is a hefty S$180 (about USD$143), and ummm, you could not pay with BTC.

What do you guys think? And more important, is anyone going?

Anyone bought their tickets yet ?
Bitcoin Singapore Conference
http://eventnook.com/event/btcsg/home

I don't know. The agenda reads like it's aimed at people that are new to bitcoin. I'd like to think I'm past that. The speakers' list has no faces to it and most of the companies listed mean little to me.  As an average XBT enthusiast, what could I benefit from attending?

The 180.- include free makan and freeflow booze? Just kidding :-)

Hi Newar,

I know the conference information to date was incomplete, we are working to make more information available to the public at the moment. The speakers list and agenda will be online soon. Thanks to David for passing some information to members of this group.

Conference price includes coffee breaks and luncheon at the venue, Fullerton hotel, no extras ;-) sorry.

Conference starts at 8:45am and discussions end at 5:45pm, networking opportunities after that.

Re. price of the conference we are just trying to cover the costs of the conference, we are not in the event business but we are helped by a local event professional. Our aim is to create networking opportunities for Asian-based Bitcoin entrepreneurs and gather cryptocurrency professionals willing to explore collaboration and investment opportunities in the region.

I hope you can make it.

If you are interested in meeting Bitcoin startup founders, investors, economists, fund managers, experts, the movers and shakers of the Bitcoin ecosystem in Asia and beyond, register now at http://evnk.co/BTCSG  -  early bird prices till October 10.

re. the focus on the conference, here are some examples of the discussion themes : starting a Bitcoin venture or investing into one, opening and operating a digital currency exchange in Asia, trading on a BTC trading platform, accepting payments in BTC, investing in bitcoin-denominated funds, dealing with Bitcoin regulatory issues, identifying Bitcoin-friendly financial institutions...

We would like to welcome attendees both well versed into cryptocurrencies (like the members of this forum) and attendees with a nascent interest in Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies (the future members of this forum...) We have only planned a short review on 'What is Bitcoin?' after this, the programme will deal with the issues mentioned above and we will leave room for asking questions to the speakers and networking with them. We also hope to attract members of the financial community of Singapore who may be interested in discovering Bitcoin; professionals from South East Asia at large and entrepreneurs wishing to contribute to the growing Bitcoin startup ecosystem of the region.

I hope to see you at the conference on Nov. 15! Do not hesitate to ask any questions about the conference here or at info@bitcoinsingapore2013.com.

Hi Vladimir,

Interesting idea and worthy cause. I have been following what Evans Wadongo is doing in Kenya with solar powered lights:

http://www.technologyreview.com/lists/innovators-under-35/2013/humanitarian/evans-wadongo/

and although it is not the same concept (and not related to cryptocurrencies), another project using household computing power: http://www.symbid.com/ideas/3900-nerdalize

I have also been following discussions on bitcointalk for a while but I have not contributed actively yet. I am the co-founder of Seedcoin, www.seedco.in, a bitcoin startup virtual incubator. Seedcoin aims to fund and incubate startups worldwide creating cryptocurrency related products and services such as digital currency exchanges, online/mobile payment solutions, secure wallets, hardware and more. Our goal is to incubate 15 startups the first year of operations, which means between now and July 2014. We have been receiving several interesting applications already.

I am also the founder of another initiative through which I could help you spread the word about your www.passthepower.com. I'll send you a linkedin connection request so we could talk about it. I am based in Hong Kong.

All the best with your ambitious initiative!

Eddy

with geopolitical factors pushing gold and oil prices, lower stock markets and the US debt limit getting close.... BTC rate should be supported beyond Mt.Gox issues. I hope...
