Promo-Steem weekly roundup : week ending 15 April 2018

Last week was one great big week for Promo-Steem.

After months of hard graft and thorough planning the Promo-Steem team led by @anarcotech, @starkerz and @stephenkendal pulled off the project's biggest achievement to date with a magnificent presence at the London Cryptocurrency Show.

I offer my fullest congratulations to Dylan, Matt, Stephen and everyone involved in making this all happen. I would have loved to have got along to the event but Matt just couldn't spare the Promo-Steem helicopter for an early morning pick-up from west Wales. Next time we will make that happen...



However the success of the Show, as well as my imminent appointment as a Steem Ambassador, gave me the idea to put together a round-up of all the great Promo-Steem activities going on around the world each week.

If this works out well then I will aim to produce this every Sunday (along with my weekly Radio Show listings post).

I will primarily be scanning the #promo-steem tag to find the best promo-steem news and events. If you know of any good promo-steem happenings coming up that you think should be included do let me know.

I will be experimenting with the format, but will primarily be dividing the post up by continent.



Europe & Rest of the World

[Steem Ambassadors in Europe : @anarcotech (UK), @cryptocurator (UK), @starkerz (UK), @reko (Sweden), @mcfarhat (Lebanon), @futurethinker ]

Promo-Steem activity in Europe for the past week was of course dominated by the London Cryptocurrency Show on Saturday. This was a highly successful event for Promo-Steem taking the message of steem to at least 1500 people in attendance.

The Promo-Steem team also managed to bring in some key people from various steem blockchain projects to show them to the crypto investor world. These included @elear, @techslut and @wehmoen from Utopian, @howo and @frederikaa from Steempress, @dunsky from eSteem, and @mrs.steemit from @appics. Unfortunately @ejemai from @stach was not able to make it but @anarcotech presented on his behalf.

There are many great blogs and vlogs about the show but these ones from @anarcotech, @cryptocurator, @exyle, @rea and @steevc capture the essence of the show :

Do let me know if the content and format work okay for this weekly roundup.

Also please comment below or message me on Discord (Pennsif#9921) if I have missed any key Promo-Steem events or projects that took place last week.

I am particularly keen to pick up any happenings that didn't have English language postings about them. I have read some of the Spanish posts and Google translated some of other language posts but they are more difficult for me to scan.

Many thanks for reading.
