Evening Reception
After the Blockchain Showcase on Capitol Hill –Â Take a Quantum Leap to the era of the American Revolution.
Agent X, through a quantum worm hole, you have been transported back to the American Revolution. Your mission, should you decide to accept it, is to identify other agents on your team, conspire with them to crack the Culper Ring code, and retrieve a lost titanium canister. This will enable you to secure a cache of plunder before other time travel agents beat you to it. Good Luck!
Ready to enter a time warp of intrigue and history? Then be sure to attend the first of a GBA series, ‘Spies Across Time’, following our Press Conference and Blockchain Showcase on Capitol Hill on March 3. GBA’s evening receptions are unique, surprising, and laden with valuable networking opportunities. And who knows what could be inside that titanium canister!
Spies Across Time will explore the concept of quantum time travel, identity, security, and transparency. The evening will be set in a creative atmosphere to inspire our tech community to think outside their Space-Time bubble.
What’s the recommended attire? Spies throughout time. Think of your favorite British Agent and his assortment of associates.
Whether dressed to jump from an airplane, ride a midnight horse to Concorde, or enjoy a Martini on the Rive Gauche, you are invited to join us for an experience you won’t soon forget.
