Hyperledger In-Depth: An Hour with Bosch on Scaling DLTs with the Perun Lab Framework

20 JAN, 11am CET

Register

Hyperledger Member company, Bosch, will host a session about their journey as contributors to Hyperledger community. The core outcome is the Perun project which is now part of Hyperledger Labs. Perun is a joint DLT Layer 2 scaling project between the Robert Bosch GmbH’s “Economy of Things” project and the Perun team of Technical University of Darmstadt. The protocol can be used on top of any blockchain system to accelerate decentralized applications and lower transaction fees. The payment and state-channel technology of Perun protocol is especially useful for high-frequency and small transactions. 

HyperHack 2021 hackathon organized by the Hyperledger India Chapter.

MARCH

The event will happen in March. More information will be rolled out in tomorrow's weekly community call. The chapter is currently looking for sponsorships, partnerships, mentors, ideas and suggestions. Here is a document of the event from "HyperHack 2020" Hackathon Feb 2020. The chapter encourages the community to join weekly calls, mailing lists, LinkedIn comments, Rocket Chat to reach out to and talk to leads. A post on this has been made on LinkedIn recently.
