Blockchain technology is revolutionizing our economy, sports and entertainment, the art world, and how we engage with one another. I want to ensure that communities like the one I come from are not left behind, said Lebron James.

The partnership will provide students and families connected to the program access to tools and educational resources about Web 3. The Foundation went on to say that James is creating a model that will support underserved communities by providing opportunities for more high-tech courses, including blockchain.

The partnership also aims to provide students and families with the support they need through Web3. Additionally, it will talk about how decentralized applications will have an impact on the future.

Through this partnership, I promise students and families will get a strong foundation in Web3 and the innovations behind blockchain-based decentralized applications powering the future of many sectors from finance to media to art, said Lebron James.

The Foundation has not disclosed the terms of this deal, however, it sounds like there is more than one year’s worth of collaboration planned. Previously, Goodyear taught students about driving and flying (which is also known as aerospace).
