It's been a while since my last speaking engagement in a Philippines-based university. That was before the pandemic began. I've been speaking to various universities and communities before to educate them about the basics of Bitcoin, cryptocurrencies, blockchain technology, etc. I've missed doing that by the way, as the pandemic disallows face-to-face classes in the Philippines.
Recently, one of the students representing a well-known university in the Philippines reached out to me personally and was inviting me to become the guest speaker of their Financial Management class to educate them about the Bitcoin and blockchain basics.
It will be done virtually since travel restrictions are still imposed and I am still scared of traveling because I don't want to be quarantined. But yet, I am still privileged and excited to talk about Bitcoin to students again, but in a virtual setup. Feels good!
Okay. So maybe, you are the guy my cousin had told me before. Ain't sure still?? Have you ever spoken in PUP? Because she goes there...
Btw, Congrats. If ever you are not that guy, it's okay, it is still nice to hear that Bitcoin is truly being accepted here in my country, and that there's a lot of bitcoin enthusiast giving knowledge and information about it. Those students are very lucky indeed.
I haven't spoken in PUP yet. I have spoken in the following universities:
- University of Makati
- University of the East - Caloocan
- Cebu Technological University
- University of San Jose - Recoletos
- University of Cebu - Banilad
- Silliman University - Dumaguete
But if given the chance, I would love to educate them about cryptos on a virtual setup since pandemic isn't over yet. However, I don't have any known connections there on PUP. If you want, you can connect me to your cousin who is a student there as you said, so that she could possibly refer me to their dean, professor, etc.
Right now, I have an old colleague of mine who has several connections in various universities and we might have a plan to have more virtual classes with students starting next month.
By the way, yesterday's session was a success....it was a 2-hour session. I almost lost my voice there lol.....
