Manchester Blockchain Alliance

The Manchester Blockchain Alliance's November meetup at the International Anthony Burgess Foundation, aimed at Manchester's Web3 founders, builders and product people. The theme is infrastructure rather than buzzwords: stablecoins changing how money moves, tokenisation of real-world assets, and AI agents transacting onchain. Doors 17:30, talks 18:00 to 20:00, drinks and networking until 21:00. It's hosted by Ian Cox (brand, product and UX adviser to 100+ Web3 products) and Andy Gray (a decade in Web3 and frontier tech), and sponsored by law firm Bermans. Free but approval-based, capacity capped at 80, with a waiting list once full. Why go: the most active Web3 room in Manchester, and the programme is practical rather than price talk. Best for crypto builders, product people and founders working on payments or tokenisation.
