An associate of The Cyber Academy, Antoni first developed an interest in cryptocurrencies and distributed ledger technology whilst on the LLB course at Edinburgh Napier University. A natural consequence of which was a growing understanding of the importance of data protection law in supporting the human right to privacy. Extensive business experience in design and supply chain management enhances her ability to apply academic knowledge to achieve practical real-world solutions; for business and research. Currently working on several projects, Antoni's main focus is on developing educational tools for all age groups, on the topic of data protection, and researching the commercial applications of blockchain technology for enhanced food security. This latter focus has multiple areas for research including; sustainable urban agriculture (including vertical farming), supply chain management, full-cycle food provenance, and the real-time measurement of economic impacts arising from urban Agritech.
