YAP Global is excited to announce our partnership as the official PR Partner of BUIDL Asia this year to continue advancing the Web3 sphere. This collaboration is framed by Asia’s pivotal role in shaping the Web3 landscape, where regulatory foresight, technological advancement, and community enthusiasm create an environment perfect for driving innovation and adoption. This year’s conference promises an exceptional lineup of speakers, including Vitalik Buterin, chief scientist at Ethereum Foundation; Illia Polosukhin, co-founder of NEAR Protocol; and Sandy Peng, co-founder at Scroll. Their participation highlights the conference’s significance as a platform for sharing insights that are shaping the future of the industry. BUIDL Asia 2024 is also supported by a strong roster of media partners, including Coindesk Korea, Cryptonews, Coiness.com (amongst others), with all dedicated to further amplifying the conference’s reach and impact.
Asia’s Web3 Growth
Asia’s Web3 landscape is experiencing a remarkable upsurge in activity and innovation. As a leader in grassroots adoption, Asia’s growth is driven by widespread internet use, financial innovation, and favourable regulations, marking a significant regional transformation beyond just tech adoption. Developers, entrepreneurs, and enthusiasts across the region are utilising blockchain technology to tackle unique local challenges.
Southeast Asian projects, especially, address socioeconomic challenges serving the large unbanked and underbanked population which inspire developers to create innovative Web3 products, as seen in projects like Stellar. Positive regulatory advancements, such as Singapore’s Project Guardian and Hong Kong’s approach to crypto ETFs, demonstrate the government’s commitment to creating innovative solutions and future-proofing their economies.
Asia’s Conference Boom
Asia’s position as a key player in the global Web3 conference scene is also rapidly solidifying. Conferences like Devcon 2024 in Thailand, TOKEN2049 in Dubai, and Korea Blockchain Week, have evolved into key arenas for networking and innovation. As these events continue to attract developers, investors, and policymakers, they highlight the active and diverse Web3 community that Asia supports.
The booming conference scene also creates brand new opportunities for middle-income countries to explore, encouraging economic growth and nurturing a new generation of entrepreneurs by offering networking opportunities, knowledge sharing, and direct investments.
YAP Global x BUIDL Asia 2024
BUIDL Asia, spearheaded by KryptoPlanet, stands at the forefront of this technological and cultural shift in Asia. Scheduled as a two-day conference, BUIDL Asia 2024 is poised to be a cornerstone event, aligning with ETH Seoul and other builder-centric events.
