Nasdaq listed FTFT Capital have launched a #CryptoCredibility campaign designed to help students be more well versed with blockchain and cryptocurrencies. The campaign focuses on positively engaging students to help them gain a stronger understanding of the technology and lift their confidence.
The campaign is the brainchild of Ola Lind, Director – FTFT Capital and Global Blockchain Business Council UAE Ambassador whose vision is to short bridge the gap between mass adoption and the current dynamics of the crypto ecosystem by providing a platform for blockchain innovation and education.
Three students have managed to secure an internship with guest speaker Ed H., founder of TakeCapital and an active GBBC member; and as a result of the first session that was held at Murdoch University Dubai led by the speaker Dr Neda Keshavarzi, Research Development Specialist at FTFT Capital Investments.
The hour-long interactive session introduced the young adults to the world of cryptocurrency, talking about the different kinds of cryptocurrencies, their uses and a brief introduction on how to get started. FTFT Capital is leveraging its employees, customers and contacts for this campaign to offer students a hands-on-immersive learning experience and the opportunity whenever possible to secure employment or internships that will allow them to learn alongside industry leaders, develop their own projects, and hone their skills and expertise in the sector.
“With major improvements taking place in the crypto and blockchain field, we want the younger generation to look at this as a full-fledged career path rather than just an investment,” said Ola Lind, Director of FTFT Capital.
Through this program, FTFT Capital is harnessing the talents of their staff and their connections to provide the best experiences to the students. Along with their technical expertise, the speakers offer a personal touch to the campaign by discussing their own experiences, such as Ed’s, who first became active in the cryptocurrency industry when Bitcoin was just worth 0.6 USD.
