KWENCH welcomes conversations about anything that sends us to the dictionary before we can enter the room (part of that whole “curious” thing we are known for). And “non-fungible”, in our humble estimation, is the sexiest word we’ve never heard of and had to look up in a long time.That’s why we are super excited to hear what James, Nori, Alex and Dan have to both teach and further illuminate about NFTs, or non-fungible tokens. NFTs are digital assets that represent ownership of real world items, and according to Business Insider NFT sales hit $2.5B last year. Holy intersectionality, Batman! This is a conversation you won’t want to miss.James DavidsonJames is a cofounder and CEO at Natureblocks, a blockchain company aimed at developing a carbon accounting platform that increases the transparency, interoperability, and accessibility of carbon credits and the mechanisms that drive clean technology development.Previously, James graduated from the University of Victoria with a degree in Computer Science, and has been actively involved in the blockchain space since 2018. He is passionate about economics, technology, and biology & medicine - and is optimistic that we can solve climate change (among other global issues) in our lifetimes.Nori NishigayaFounder of the Salmon Nation Decentralized Alliance (SANADA), an organization devoted to bringing creative blockchain solutions to challenges within the Salmon Nation bio-region.
