In the W3E Gaming area, participants will be able to enter the adrenaline-filled world of Web3 esports and experience game demos, tournaments and expert opinions.

Experts will share their views and the latest innovations in the industry on topics such as digital assets and tokens, innovations in esports, social communities and the advantages of blockchain games. The event will also feature speakers from executives from Dark Machine, Scape, Farcana, WEMIX, Elympics, Soulbound and Whalepass.

Commenting on the event, W3E Team Leader Damian Bartlett said: “In recent months, games have become increasingly recognised as the easiest platform for Web3 to gain mainstream acceptance. We are very excited to bring this concept to life. Attendees will leave the event with a wealth of fun experiences and new knowledge, as well as discovering the huge potential of this industry.”
