We are excited to share with the Hive community an update about the second Hive conference happening this March in Ghana. This will be the second time we are hosting a conference that provides us with the platform to extensively share about Hive. Over the years, we(@mcsamm and @collinz ) have aimed to spread the gospel of Hive to many who may not have an idea of what has been built on the Hive blockchain, bringing onboard great minds whom we believe could help bring value to the Hive blockchain.

The objective of the conference is to establish a platform that will provide insights and greater exposure to individuals regarding cutting-edge technologies, opportunities within the world of Hive, and to provide exposure about opportunities young aspiring entrepreneurs could leverage for good within the tech space. 

We look forward to hosting the Hive conference in various locations across the regions of Ghana, commencing in the Ashanti Region. This second conference will be held at KNUST in the school's Great Hall on the 9th of March 2024.

Additionally, time will be allocated for chiefs from various communities where Hive has had a significant impact in terms of water provision to speak about Hive's impact in their town.
