    #02 - Sharon Sciammas: Web3, the metaverse, culture & consumer generated brands. 


    Welcome to another episode of Zero-Code. I am your host, Sanad Karkar, Founder & CEO of this ultimate Web3 launchpad that is designed for creative minds. This podcast aims to put the spotlight on the most outstanding innovators and builders in the space. To foster an environment for discovery, engagement, and learning. Discover the latest technological trends from Web3 to the metaverse to Artificial Intelligence and beyond. We will interview builders, entrepreneurs, scientists, engineers, hackers, lawyers, and everything in between.


    In this episode, we are talking to a cultural giant in the Web3 space, Sharon Sciammas. He started his career as a data engineer, working with some of the world's most innovative tech firms from Israel, the USA, and Europe. He is more than a technical engineer. He has also explored the world of social engineering in both the worlds of liberal and creative arts. He is obsessed with the art form of storytelling to build robust human communities that revolve around a brand, whether it's commercial or personal. 


    As a matter of fact, this is how I got to know Sharon. We both met in the Crypto Packaged Goods. AKA, as CPG, a virtual and physical community of Web3 builders and investors. From that, I stumbled upon the collective W3b Lab that Sharon founded. They just started last year, and they already have a robust 1,000-member community across four countries in Europe, Madrid, Lisbon, Amsterdam, and Berlin, and they are expanding at lightspeed. W3b Lab is centered around giving back to the community. It's where you can meet other Web3 builders, creatives, investors, and blockchain networks and hold exciting and engaging hackathons and IRL events. In a nutshell, it's a community of the most forward-thinking and ambitious minds in the space. I encourage you to get in touch with Sharon and join the community. I have put the links in the description box.

  • #01 - Khalid Saqr, Ph.D.: Decentralized Science & Blockchain
    Jan 16 2023

    Hello Everone, this is Sanad Karkar, CEO & Founder of Zero-Code, the ultimate Web3 launchpad. This podcast is part of our Academy, which aims to demystify the latest technological trends from Web3,Blockchain to Artificial Intelligence. We will interview builders, entrepreneurs, venture capitalist, scientists, hackers, lawyers, and everything in between.

    On this first episode, I am thrilled to talk to Dr. Khalid Saqr, the founder of Knowdyn & DeScience.Fund. Khalid is a well-respected scientist and researcher in computational fluid dynamics, with over 70 peer-reviewed papers. His research focused on investigating fluid turbulence and its implications in energy systems, the environment, and, lately, the physiology of human circulation. Khalid is a visiting professor at Tohoku University, Japan, a Mentor at Newchip Accelerator, Board member and associate editor of Frontiers in Mechanical Engineering and FLUIDS journals. Reviewer and panel member of Egypt's Science and Technology Development Fund (STDF).
                                       
    Over the years, his fascination with turbulence, as a natural phenomenon and as a theory of nonlinear dynamics, has matured into a practical and vested interest in scenario planning, cryptography, and decentralization. As a Minskyan, he firmly believes that machine intelligence's true promise can only be fulfilled through augmented intelligence. Human-in-the-Loop, which requires proactive human participation, can be quickly rewarded with valuable digital assets, as proposed through the DeSci movement.

    Currently, Khalid is heading Bio-CFD (USA) and Knowdyn (UK) with an incredible group of visionaries who are united to bring a better future for science and the world as a whole. I hope you enjoy this podcast, and if you do, please subscribe so we can keep creating great content like this.
