The meetup was supported by CSIT Association of Nepal, ASCOL IT Club & Digital Notice, India.

With showcasing the examples of how Blockchain technology has been used in the People’s Republic of China and Australia, he also talked about the scope it has in the agricultural and developing country like Nepal. Ms. Ashmita also spoke of how eSatya has been contributing to the same with its product- AgriClear is a mobile-based system which helps in tracking good agricultural habits & practices from farm to finger.In the second half, Mr. Amatya introduced the Hult Prize to the attendees and also encouraged everyone to participate in the competition that will eventually award One Million Dollars as the seed funding to the ultimate winners.With more than 60 attendees in the session, the interesting part was the queries session where our speakers clearly answered their dilemma while promising them of any help possible from their side.https://www.facebook.com/hultiost/videos/2803833806498866
