For many young women interested in new tech like blockchain and AI, the biggest challenge is not the tech itself. It’s figuring out where to start. Filipina builder Bea Llana has a simple answer: education.
In the Philippines, blockchain and Web3 are gaining speed. Universities now offer courses on these topics. Government groups study rules for them. Local builders join big global projects. But not everyone knows about it yet. Many think blockchain is just about buying and selling crypto or that only coders can join.
Bea Llana wants to change that. She says the key to real growth is teaching people what blockchain really does.
“There’s a huge gap in what people know,” she says. “Most hear ‘blockchain’ and think crypto scams.”
Truth is, blockchain is more than money games. It’s a strong base for finance, digital IDs, data sharing, and even government work. For young Filipinos, it means new jobs and careers.
Bea Llana found blockchain in college during the pandemic. She started with , those unique digital items on blockchain. But a school class on fintech changed everything.
“One elective class can change your whole path,” she notes.
The class covered blockchain, AI, and cloud tech – all reshaping the world economy. This lit a fire in her. She joined groups, went to tech events, and volunteered at meetups.
Her lesson? In new fields like Web3, curiosity beats fancy degrees.
“You don’t need a full plan. Just start with curiosity.”
That led her to groups like OpenVerse (once called Web3PH). They run events and programs to teach students and newbies about blockchain.
The Philippines leads in using digital money. But Bea says the real excitement is homegrown builders.
“So many Filipinos are pushing projects forward. We need to highlight them more,” she says.
Students in schools, hackathons, and startup spots build protocols, decentralized apps (dApps), and blockchain tools. Young people code, create, and team up worldwide.
“Today’s students are super curious. They’re making cool stuff already,” Bea adds.
Still, the country needs better help: strong networks, communities, and support.
“It takes infrastructure, community, and backing to work together.”
Even with growth, wrong ideas block progress. People think it’s only crypto trading or for programmers only.
“The space is way bigger,” Bea explains. “Lots of ways to join, not just code.”
Projects need marketers, strategists, researchers, designers, and community leads. As blockchain mixes with AI, gaming, finance, and content, jobs grow fast.
grows quick, but women are few. Bea says more women mean better growth and fresh views.
“Seeing another woman there empowers you. ‘If she can, I can.'”
More women leaders mean mentors and confidence for new ones. Women shine in building communities and teaching.
“I’ve seen women lead groups, education drives, and projects. We’re driven to move things ahead,” she says.
In a young industry, this drive shapes the future.
“This space is still building. Much to form.”
Philippines’ win in new tech depends on sharing knowledge wide. Classes, workshops, and community events close the info gap.
Some schools teach blockchain now. Tech groups run student sessions. Bea wants more chances for youth.
“Basics alone open doors,” she says.
Imagine: better internet in remote areas means more access. That’s where Bea’s new project shines.
Bea launched Buhayin Creative Impact Studio. It uses tech to help far-off island communities. With help from partners like Bitget, they gave Starlink kits to schools. This boosts internet and lets kids touch , AI, and more.
Projects focus on digital access, sparking curiosity in places once cut off.
For young women eyeing AI, blockchain, or , Bea’s tip is clear.
“Show up and claim your spot.”
New tech lets you build the industry as it grows. No better time.
“Curiosity starts it all,” she says.
For Filipina builders, that spark builds tomorrow’s tech.
From to , Bea Llana shows how education and community turn curiosity into action. Philippines builders rise, women lead, and remote areas connect.
Blockchain isn’t scams or code-only. It’s tools for finance, identity, games, and more. With support, Filipinos shape global .
