Meet Funmi

“This internship, provides me a safe space, to truly understand, explore with our hindrances, and contribute to the space, build a supportive and rich network of amazing women”

Finding a safe space to learn and contribute in the blockchain ecosystem has been a desire for me as a non-coding woman in tech.

Recent times I have been studying to understand the technology of blockchain, cryptocurrency, NFTs and the metaverse. Theses systems provide enormous opportunities for women to create and in particular Africa to grow and thrive irrespective of the unique economic challenges.

Joining the Black Women Blockchain Council gives me the opportunity to learn from amazing women that have years of experience and have the passion to learn, teach and build a generation that maximizes the opportunities of Blockchain’s disruptive technology. This internship, provides me a safe space, to truly understand, explore with our hindrances, and contribute to the space, build a supportive and rich network of amazing women that are taking bold steps and constantly re-inventing themselves.

It’s truly an honor.
