NEM has started its plan to expand in Australiaâs blockchain system by launching the NEM Blockchain Hub in Melbourne. The blockchain hub has their own dedicated NEM representatives to engage with members to the public and the community, to help them understand NEM Foundationâs vision of blockchain technology and its cryptocurrency, XEM.

This is set to become a multi-sector co-working facility that celebrates collaboration and innovation for more than 360 of Australiaâs top startups, accelerators, and incubators,â said LaunchVic CEO, Kate Cornick.
The NEM Blockchain Centre and Blockchain Hub will also join Stone & Chalk, one of Australiaâs fintech fixtures, which extended from Sydney to Melbourne in 2017.
