MultiversX Blockchain Education Initiative With Ivy League eCornell

Building on a history of collaborations like those with the University of Vienna and ELTE Budapest, we are continuing to invest in educational initiatives by providing underprivileged college students with the opportunity to take part in a Blockchain Essentials program with eCornell, the online education unit of Cornell University, a top-ranked global institution.

This program is the latest step in our commitment to education, following multiple introductory blockchain courses and hackathons that have already taken place in partnership with colleges and universities around the world.

In collaboration with eCornell, a leading provider of online education, we are launching a pioneering educational initiative.

Starting this summer, MultiversX will offer a pilot Blockchain Essentials Certificate Program to 100 underserved, college-age students from anywhere in the world, by pledging sponsorship to all participating students to cover their course fees.

This initiative aims to facilitate access to blockchain education, enabling students to explore the vast opportunities within the Web3 space.

Participants will engage in eCornell’s Blockchain Certificate Program and, upon completion, will undertake a hands-on challenge using the MultiversX technology stack, providing real-world experience to support them in their professional careers.

"Blockchain is an open book for anyone willing to read it. We’re still at the beginning of this story, so there’s plenty of room for anyone with innovative ideas that they want to bring to fruition. MultiversX’s collaboration with eCornell highlights our commitment to making our technology accessible to different communities all over the world, and it’s just one of the ways we’re streamlining the onboarding of builders to Web3 and to our ecosystem." - said Beniamin Mincu, CEO of MultiversX.

Upon completion of the 2-month eCornell program, students will have the opportunity to receive mentorship, support, and funding from MultiversX to develop blockchain projects that can benefit their communities.
