Are you new to Hyperledger Fabric? It's a project under the Linux Foundation which can be used to build permissioned blockchains. This meetup will provide an overview of Fabric architecture, describing key components, e.g. identities, consensus algorithms, channels, policies, endorsement, world state, & security. Laptops are not required to participate.

The talk will also describe IBM Blockchain starter plan (https://ibm.co/2IxkThy), which developers can use to kick the tires on Hyperledger Fabric.
