According to the announcement, the conference is anticipated to kick off with a “warm-up session” on December 4-5, featuring hackathons, side events, and parties.
Hashed Emergent, a prominent player in the blockchain space has announced the launch of India Blockchain Week (IBW), India’s first-ever Web3 conference of a remarkable magnitude. Per a press release shared with Coinspeaker, IBW will serve as the headline event, anchoring an entire week of Web3-focused activities, and will be held at the Sheraton Grand in Bangalore from December 4-10, 2023.
The emergence of blockchain technology and the decentralized ecosystem has paved the way for a new era of innovation and transformation. Recognizing the immense potential of Web3 technologies, Hashed Emergent is taking a proactive step in bringing together industry experts, and technology enthusiasts from diverse sectors to explore the possibilities and impact of this technology.
As the headline conference of the week-long series of events, the conference intends to highlight Web3 developments, prospects, and difficulties, with a special emphasis on India’s distinctive contributions and perspectives. With a focus on pan-industry participation, the conference aims to attract attendees from various sectors.
IBW is not only a conference but a platform that encompasses engaging speaker sessions, panel discussions, fireside chats, and moderated debates. The event’s agenda is designed to be maximally inclusive, covering a wide array of topics across the entire spectrum of the blockchain industry.
By facilitating meaningful discussions and knowledge exchange, IBW seeks to drive innovation, foster collaboration, and propel the blockchain industry forward. It is important to note that this update comes only days after the announcement of a similar event, MoneyExpo India 2023 scheduled to take place at the prestigious Jio World Convention Centre on the 12th and 13th of August 2023.
Overall, India has seen substantial development in the Web3 ecosystem, with a staggering 100-fold rise in on-chain value flows since 2019. Despite regulatory hurdles, the country boasts the largest number of users across centralized and Decentralized Finance (DeFi) platforms.
Notably, the government’s participation in global regulatory discussions demonstrates its commitment to developing a harmonized regulatory framework.
