The Tech Educators community was incredibly well represented this year at Sync The City, with a range of developers, mentors and more being working together to build a startup in just over two days.
It was a good turnout for the teams too, with two of the three prizes going to Tech Educators Alumni and Staff.
DiceCasters won the blockchain award of £500, which started with course Director Tim Smith's one minute pitch. The startup aims to support indie boardgame developers build out their games, with the support of artists, story creators and early play testers getting a share of the revenue for their input/

Recent graduate, Jack Doy, also took the technical lead on TrustM3, which was also mentored by our founder James Adams. TrustM3 is a blockchain enabled validation platform for skills and employment, that cuts out the fuss of hiring qualified candidates, and allows trusted individuals to rate employers and create industry expert content, backed up with verifiable achievements and experience.
