USC’s largest entrepreneurship mixer—at least, that we know of—is coming up!
Join students, founders, and organizations from across USC for an afternoon of casual networking and community building. Whether you’re an engineer, entrepreneur, creative, or builder, this is an opportunity to meet collaborators, discover campus resources, and connect with USC’s broader entrepreneurship ecosystem.
USC VEDA will be there to share more about the USC Builders Grant, offering non-dilutive, no-equity funding to help USC students and recent alumni develop blockchain-enabled ventures. Applications launch October 1!
Attendees will also receive a free digital networking card to exchange information with a simple tap and see their network grow throughout the event. Food and beverages will be provided.
📅 Tuesday, October 6
⏰ 4:00–6:00 p.m.
🤝 Presented by @USCViterbi , @USCIovineYoung , @USCMarshall , and VEDA along with participating campus organizations!
RSVP: luma.com/tiehub-vr7p

I wrote “Tokenization Is Not What It Seems” for the Open track of the @Ledger N3XT Research Competition on behalf of @0xBlockchainSC.
My argument is that the world's financial infrastructure will be built on the properties of tokens, not on their ownership.

Thrilled that our Co-founder & CEO @ChiZhangData joined the "The Use of AI in Blockchain and Crypto" panel at the USC VanEck Southern California Blockchain Conference!
Had energizing discussions on how AI agents are reshaping on-chain economies alongside leaders from @solana, @AvaLabs, @LifeNetwork_AI and more. These conversations reinforced why purpose-built, secure payment infrastructure is essential for large-scale autonomous participation.
Huge thanks to @USC_VEDA and @0xBlockchainSC for hosting this high-signal university-led event!
Kite remains focused on building the first AI payment blockchain to power the agentic economy. The future is accelerating. 🪁

Day 1 at the VanEck Southern California Blockchain Conference at USC has wrapped, and what an incredible start it was.
We are grateful that Dr. Tuan Cao, Co-Founder & CEO of Life AI, had the opportunity to join the panel on "The Use of AI in Blockchain and Crypto," alongside remarkable leaders from Ava Labs, Solana, Kite AI, and The Opulent Agency.
Conversations like these, honest, forward-looking, and grounded in real-world application, are exactly why we believe the intersection of AI and blockchain holds enormous promise.
Thank you to @USC_VEDA, @0xBlockchainSC, and the entire team for creating a space where builders, researchers, and industry leaders can come together to shape what's next.
We left inspired and more committed than ever to the work ahead at Life AI.
