Serokell at TQuorum Berlin

At the end of August 2019, Serokell's team of developers participated at TQuorum Berlin. Read this event recap to learn more about our experience there and the variety of innovations being done on the Tezos blockchain.

Serokell at TQuorum Berlin 2019

At the end of August 2019, our team participated in the Berlin edition of TQuorum, a global gathering of [Tezos](https://tezos.com/) developers and enthusiasts with a strong focus on building on Tezos. 

## One of the main Tezos events in Europe

Among companies attending were impressive research laboratories like Cryptium Labs, Nomadic Labs, Stove Labs and, of course, Serokell.

We presented Michelson tooling that we had been working on since February 2019. 

**The Michelson tooling itself consists of the following parts:**

* [Morley framework](https://gitlab.com/morley-framework/morley) — our reimplementation of Michelson typechecker and interpreter, Michelson language extensions, Michelson eDSL (which is basically Michelson lifted to Haskell) and testing primitives for unit, property and integration tests.
* Lorentz eDSL — a more high-level version of Michelson eDSL that we use for writing contracts in productions.
* Indigo eDSL — a high-level eDSL with declarative style of programming, on which we are still working on. 
* Testing support for Lorentz and Indigo.

## Practical workshops on Tezos technologies

The event consisted of series of technical workshops about Tezos and tools for its environment that speakers had been working on. We (especially Ilya) were happy to meet our colleagues from TQ that we’ve been collaborating with remotely.

It's a pleasure to be amongst the companies trying to change the world, and see all the recent innovations in acessibility, privacy, and smart contract language development. To learn in more detail about the solutions presented at TQuorum Berlin, check out the [TQTezos event recap](https://medium.com/tqtezos/recapping-tquorum-berlin-339cc70073b).

Serokell Launches a Scholarship Together With ITMO

Learn more about the Serokell scholarship – our contribution to the future of computer technologies.

Education and [support of science](https://serokell.io/fintech-development) are one of the main goals of the Serokell. Our interactions with academy are manifold: many of our employees also lecture at universities and we run our own [research lab](https://serokell.io/labs) together with [ITMO](https://en.itmo.ru/en/).  
 
## Supporting students of computer technologies
 
For this reason, since June we have been contributing to a fund held by ITMO, the goal of which is to support all scientific activities of the computer technologies department of ITMO. Other notable supporters include large IT firms such as Yandex, JetBrains, Mail.ru. 
 
These contributions have resulted in the creation of the Serokell scholarship – monthly awards for the best performing students in computer technologies at ITMO. For the next half year, these 9 students will be receiving a monthly stipend of a considerable amount so that they could focus more on their studies.

## Investment in the future is worth it  
 
According to our CEO Arseniy Seroka:  

> Additional work spent on studies significantly impacts the prospective results of future programmers, but it is hard for students to afford this investment. This scholarship will allow those with good marks to achieve the best results they can. 
 
This is the first time anything like this has happened in the faculty, and we are excited to make our mark on the future of computer science.
