Previous Global Blockchain Congress events have been a runaway success, and have hosted over 1,000 investors and 250 blockchain startups, raising millions in funding for partner projects worldwide.

As the world becomes increasingly connected, and technologies such as NFTs, AI and the Metaverse become more commonplace, the event will provide a forum to discuss how legal frameworks for digital assets can be built, as well as how these new technologies will fit into the world of gaming.

Further announcements are expected as we get closer to the event, but for now, you’ll need to register your interest here, as spots are strictly limited.
