In our first ever episode we speak to Allyson Downey, celebrated entrepreneur and cofounder of the popular NFT project Meta Angels, an NFT that lives on the blockchain and gives access to a membership network with real life opportunities. Allyson breaks down what role an NFT can play in our lives, and talks about what first sparked her curiosity for all things Web 3.0. Allyson is a serial entrepreneur with an impressive history, with her first startup WeeSpring going through the prestigious TechStars accelerator in New York. Meta Angels are also known for their Wishing Well, where Randi Zuckerberg met her cofounder Debbie Soon to create HUG. The world of NFTs, crypto and the metaverse can feel overwhelming, so in each episode we demystify the jargon and get everybody on the same page, before going further down the Web3 rabbithole. Women of Web3 is a community that's connecting women in the next iteration of the internet. Follow us on Twitter to find out more about job opportunities, learning resources and events!
