SPAS representatives boarded the crypto express to the world of digital assets at the Bybit headquarters, sharing unique perspectives as educators and first-hand insights from Liu at the frontier of the digital economy.
"We are proud to welcome the SPAS family to Bybit's headquarters, and we hope this will become the starting point of SPAS students' blockchain journey. The value of blockchain education is not only giving students a headstart in understanding the digital economy, but also to inspire them to think about changing the world for the better with a powerful technology that will one day be entirely at their disposal," said Helen Liu, COO of Bybit.
"It is a great honor for Saint Paul International School to establish a meaningful partnership with Bybit, a global leader in blockchain technology. This visit to Bybit's headquarters in Dubai was more than just a meeting; it was a precious opportunity to build a foundation of deep mutual trust," said Ryan Kim, Head of SPAS.
