About this event
Online Workshop with University of Washington Blockchain Society
Introduction
Avalanche Team1 is partnering with the University of Washington Blockchain Society for an online workshop focused on building, learning, and exploring the Avalanche ecosystem.
This session is part of a global initiative designed to support student builders, introduce real Web3 infrastructure, and create clear paths from learning to shipping.
Whether you are new to blockchain or already building, this workshop is designed to be practical, grounded, and builder-focused.
This session is the first in a two-part series. It focuses on setting the foundation, covering how Avalanche works at a high level, and where students can plug in. A follow-up session will build on this with a more technical, discussion-driven format.
