Bitget, a leading cryptocurrency exchange and Web3 company, hosted its first workshop for students and faculty of Baku Engineering University as part of its global educational initiative, Blockchain4Youth. The speaker at the event was Vugar Usizade, COO of Bitget. Over 200 attendees participated in the workshop, including students from technical majors, university faculty, media representatives, and opinion leaders.
