Since its inception in 2015, this highly anticipated event has attracted over 9,800 attendees from 160 countries, establishing itself as a premier platform for showcasing the latest innovations and disruptions in blockchain and cryptocurrency.
Prepare to be inspired by an exceptional lineup of world-class speakers, both international and local, as we gather global participants. Gain invaluable insights, engage in dynamic debates, and participate in thought-provoking panel discussions on how blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies are transforming global business practices, especially across the African continent.
The conference will explore transformative concepts, market disruptors, industry trends, and emerging technologies shaping the future marketplace. With a special emphasis on Africa, we will examine global trends, opportunities, and challenges faced by market players leveraging blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies.
