Global Blockchain Business Council (GBBC)’s 9th Annual Blockchain Central UNGA will be held in New York City, alongside the 81st Session of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA), hosted jointly with international law firm DLA Piper. As an official partner of Global Goals Week, Blockchain Central UNGA returns in person to convene global thought leaders and changemakers from across blockchain, government, technology, and industry. Together, we’ll explore how blockchain-powered solutions can accelerate progress toward achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
