Conference circuit of October

Let’s dive into a whirlwind of exciting events that took place this month:

Our journey started at CV Summit in Zug, Switzerland, which offered a unique networking experience. This event, different from the others we have attended, saw participation from well-established organizations. It was a testament to the industry’s maturity as we witnessed a shift from asset-driven ecosystems to real-world problem-solving. As partners of CV Labs, we secured a booth and connected with potential leads in supply chain, DAOs, and NFT-based property deeds management.

EthMilan — Embracing Web3

Heading south to EthMilan in Lombardy, Bruce Ahn our Head of Developer Relations participated in the first major Web3 conference and joined a panel discussion on DAOs.

It was enlightening to witness the maturation of DAOs and explore the need for privacy in the space.
