# Tokenly
This month we have Adam B Levine (famous for Lets Talk Bitcoin) speaking about Tokenly, the business he has co-founded and where he serves as CEO. He will be on a video feed from the USA, where he lives and works.
Tokenly is a set of services that run on the Bitcoin blockchain. They include a wallet, a payment processor, an access control service, and numerous others both already available and in the pipeline.
Adam will introduce the idea of tokens, explain redeemables and access tokens, and then do a Q&A to cover topics the audience is interested to hear more about.
# Pizza & Pub
As always we'll have sponsored pizza provided by one of the Bitcoin-accepting Takeaway.com vendors.
Finally at around 9pm we'll head to the pub, which is our new friend Terrace right next to MadLab.
See you there!
