The 25th Edition of World Blockchain Summit is set to take place in Dubai

The 23rd global edition of the World’s Biggest Blockchain Summit Series is making a return to Dubai on October 17-18, 2022 at Atlantis, The Palm, Dubai, UAE. The World Blockchain Summit will be one of the most elite gatherings of the global crypto and blockchain ecosystem.

Dubai has set its sights on becoming a global tech hub by attracting entrepreneurs, investors and even crypto influencers as marketing capitalization hits $1.4 trillion up 86% year-to-date, with the Middle East’s blockchain market anticipated to be worth $3.2 billion by 2023.

The UAE has started implementing crypto regulation in the past year, issuing more than 30 exchange licenses and establishing a dedicated regulatory body. But will the UAE’s new regulatory structure make the market grow even faster? And will the Emirati government be able to regulate cryptocurrency quickly and effectively? World Blockchain Summit looks forward to answering these questions and bring together industry experts and thought leaders to understand what the blockchain future looks like.

In line with Dubai’s vision of being a global Web3 hub, leadership backing, and digital asset regulatory frameworks, the summit will feature presentations, use-case studies, and educational sessions by global technology providers who will be showcasing their latest

Zelensky said he did not call to hit the Russian Federation with nuclear weapons

President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that he did not mean the use of nuclear weapons against the Russian Federation when he called on NATO members to “preemptive strikes” on Russia. On Friday, October 7, TASS reports.

According to the Ukrainian leader, his speech was about new Western sanctions, which, in his opinion, can and should prevent a nuclear war.

“The world can present a sanctions package in this case and do everything possible for them to leave the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant,” Zelensky said.

The politician also lamented that his statements about “preemptive strikes” were initially misunderstood, after which Moscow began to use the resonant statement “in a favorable manner and relay it in other directions.”

The fact that the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) should not wait for the possible use of nuclear weapons by Moscow, but should strike on its own, Zelensky said the day before during an online conference held by the Austrian think tank Lowy Institute. “What should NATO do? Eliminate the possibility of Russia using nuclear weapons. But what is important, I once again appeal to the international community, as it was before February

Entrepreneur Faadil Tayob – A Business Model That Is a New Norm Now!

What do you do first when you face any challenge and looking to solve a problem or even learn something new? Well, it’s a simple answer, you google it.

But at the same time, considering the massive volume of information available online, it is overwhelming for anyone to get the right information to fit their need and solve problems. The solution to this challenge is not more information but the right information in a structured format to solve a problem and add value.

The same was the answer of FaadilTayob from Dubai, UAE, who says that customers are overloaded with information because most of the content creators are just pushing data in an unstructured way without understanding the problems or requirements of their customers. It is important to understand customers’ problems, needs, desires, and then create structured content to produce a valuable outcome and solution.

Faadil is a business owner and a leader in the franchise industry. His business expertise extends to various industries and is not limited to the sectors of clothing retail, food, and product supply. He has employed hundreds of employees till date and looks forward to earning more achievements by the end of this year.

ASSOCIATED PRESS

When the Fort Worth school district partnered with an Indiana-based charter network to operate a struggling middle school, district leaders said they hoped the move would bring the stability that the campus had lacked for years.

But a year into that partnership, Jacquet Middle School is still in F-rated campus. Officials in the Fort Worth Independent School District say they’ll be taking greater oversight over the school, which is located in Fort Worth’s Stop Six neighborhood.

Included in the district’s agreement with the Indianapolis-based Phalen Leadership Academies was a requirement that Jacquet, which had been an F-rated campus for years, would improve enough academically in the first year that it would receive a C rating from the state. The following year, the agreement dictates that Jacquet would be a B-rated school.

But one year into the agreement, the school is nowhere close to the C rating the agreement requires. In the 2022 AF accountability scores released last month, the Texas Education Agency
