“Thrilled and excited to return to the Web3 arena as a co-host of the blockbuster WOW Summit 2023, Hong Kong edition, one of the biggest and the brightest Web3 conferences in the APAC region, filled with thought leaders, trailblazers, and industry experts looking to shape the future of the industry. Hong Kong, as the home ground to the world’s largest Web3 Gaming and Metaverse players, has always treaded with cautious optimism when it comes to crypto and Web3 and largely avoided the fallout of the Crypto Winter. But with an increasingly supportive regulatory stance and the open embrace of Metaverse, Hong Kong is positioned well to re-claim its leadership in the Web3 space!” said Bowie Lau, the founder of MaGESpire.
WOW HK will bring together top industry leaders, developers, startups, venture capitalists, funds, corporations, and creators to talk about the hottest topics in the space, network, and find new business opportunities. Hong Kong is a great place for tech events, and Web3 is growing like crazy here. WOW Summit Hong Kong is the first big Web3 event to happen in the city since Covid was over. The talks and fireside chats will be about the change from Web2 to Web3 and the future of the internet, as well as the adoption of blockchain, tokenization of real assets, NFT and Metaverse use cases, CBDC, regulations, and more.

“The transition from Web2 to Web3, from centralized services to decentralized, is happening now despite the global recession, crypto winter, and uncertainty. Technological progress is unstoppable. Data privacy, end-user data ownership, access to financial products for the unbanked, digital property rights, new tools for customer loyalty management, DAO, and metaverse development – these are the trends of the third decade of the 21st century. Hong Kong has reopened its borders and introduced a new vision on Web3 and virtual assets, welcoming tech companies from all over the world. I’m excited to bring WOW Summit here to boost the transition to Web3; WOW things will happen here!” said Ivan V. Ivanov, CEO of WOW Summit, Partner of UVECON.VC.
