Recently, the largest Web3 industry conference in Asia this year—Token 2049—kicked off in Singapore. Over 10,000 industry participants from more than 500 companies gathered at Marina Bay Sands to exchange and share insights on numerous agendas and important trends, including decentralized finance, regulatory landscapes, artificial intelligence, on-chain gaming, and the scalability and interoperability of blockchain technology, creating unprecedented excitement.
On September 12, supported by ChainCatcher, the peripheral event "The Global Web3ers Gathering atop Singapore," co-hosted by pioneering Web3 venture capital and research institution Bing Ventures and Followin, took the lead, attracting nearly 1,000 industry participants. This social dinner and conference event held at the Ce La Vi restaurant and sky bar on the 57th floor of Singapore's iconic Marina Bay Sands became a highly praised "opening masterpiece" of Token 2049 Week among Web3 participants!
The event not only featured a luxurious lineup of sponsors including OKX, Unisat, BingX, AWS, NYM, Figment Capital, Jasmy, C^2^ Ventures, and DeFactor, but also invited leading investment institutions, project parties, infrastructure providers, and media representatives from Figment Capital, Outlier Ventures, Nansen.ai, Lido Finance, NYM, Global Coin Research, Napster, Bitcoin.com, and Metaverse Post to bring exciting insights and discussions to the attendees.
Under Currents in the Crypto Market, Web3 Entrepreneurs Need New Empowerment
The year 2023 marks a new beginning for the cryptocurrency and Web3 fields, with existing projects on the path to recovery and emerging narratives and innovations following closely. However, on the market side, the bear market has yet to begin, with prices compressed within a narrow consolidation range.
What is the trend of cryptocurrencies? How do institutional investors view the current market environment? What tracks and themes are worth laying out in the market? As project parties, how can they stand out in the ever-evolving competitive landscape and the unpredictable shifts in market hotspots?
In addition to keynote speeches, attendees engaged in forward-looking and enlightening discussions on the topics of "Navigating the Evolving Crypto Market" and "Information Aggregation and Community Building in the Web3 Era" regarding the aforementioned questions.
Guests generally believe that the current market environment is an important strategic layout period for both capital providers and project parties. By closely following industry developments, staying close to user communities, and effectively utilizing empowering technologies, project parties will be able to accurately identify niche blue oceans, grasp the pulse of innovation, and solidify their foundations for long-term healthy development. Behind the project parties, the multiple supports from venture capital, accelerators, incubators, and media should not be overlooked. In particular, capital providers have increasingly become an important force in bringing multidimensional empowerment to entrepreneurs.
As one of the organizers, Bing Ventures and Followin are part of this force. For example, as a research-driven and narrative-led venture capital institution, Bing Ventures has over 50 portfolio projects across various tracks including Infra, DeFi, and On-Chain Gaming, and further expands its coverage of industry innovation fields and projects through investments in Fund Of Fund (FOF) businesses like Figment Capital. Bing Ventures is a global venture capital institution headquartered in Singapore and Hong Kong, dedicated to providing comprehensive support for the global development of Web3 innovative projects and entrepreneurs through research and data analysis of cutting-edge technologies, leveraging a globally distributed team across Asia, the United States, and Europe, and deep industry connections, including beneficial offline activities for industry information exchange and entrepreneur networking like this event.
Under the beautiful night sky of Ce La Vi, attendees at the pinnacle of Singapore met new friends in the Web3 field who share their aspirations, while exchanging and discussing the insights and inspirations brought by the conference agenda.
This event concluded successfully, but more dialogues, collaborations, and exchanges are just beginning from this starting point.
