On July 26th, OPEN Washington DC in partnership with Muppies DC, held a fireside chat with Mr. Ali Hassan, co-founder of Crescent Crypto Asset Management. The chat was moderated by Ms. Amal Baig, a Senior Consultant at Ernst & Young and this event was held at iStrategyLabs in Washington DC. The Executive Committee and the OPEN DC President were in attendance.
Ms. Baig and Mr. Hassan began with an introduction to Blockchain and cryptocurrency, as Mr. Hassan continued to provide insight on the evolving landscape of this new asset class. The audience included individuals with a wide range of experience in the space. Once the session opened up for Q&A, Mr. Hassan and Ms. Baig took questions about the viability of cryptocurrency, and actual adoption of Blockchain by organizations like E&Y. The event closed with time for the audience to network, and our community had the chance to engage with Muppies DC and other new faces in attendance.
OPEN Washington D.C. is excited to continue to work with Muppies DC in building the DMV’s entrepreneurship ecosystem. We want to thank Muppies DC for collaborating with OPEN DC and congratulate them on a successful event.
Hasan M. Ibrahim
President
