Agora Successfully Holds First Edition of Global Blockchain Congress in Europe

The first Europe edition of the prominent Global Blockchain Congress by Agora Group turned out to be a massive success, connecting international startups to a pool of seasoned industry investors. 

Leveraging the experience from previous editions of the Global Blockchain Congress in Dubai and Vietnam, Agora successfully brought together more than 80 investors and 15 projects for the Europe edition, which took place in London, United Kingdom, on July 24th and 25th. 

Unlike regular blockchain conferences or exhibitions, the Global Blockchain Congress is an exclusive, closed-door congress that aims to bolster the growth of the blockchain sector by connecting investors and hand-picked blockchain projects looking to raise funds. 

The two-day Europe edition was focused on DeFi, Gaming, Metaverse, and NFTs, featuring presentations and panel discussions hosted by Karnika E. Yashwant, Founder of Utopian Capital, and other moderators.

Over 60 keynote speakers graced the event, including Robby Yung, CEO of Investments at Animoca Brands; Riz Pabani, Partnerships Manager Cardano Foundation; Mona Tiesler, Investment Manager Tokentus Investment AG; Alex Odagiu, Investment Director at Binance Labs; Pietro Negri Outlier Ventures Structuring and Portfolio Fundraising, and many others. 

The edition also included sessions for networking and one-on-one meetings for entrepreneurs, founders, and investors (VCs, Private Equity Firms, Family Offices, Crypto Funds, and High Networth Individuals). 

Agora crowned the event with the 5th edition of the Global Blockchain Congress Awards, where three projects were recognized and ranked by investors based on the project’s likelihood of getting funded. The 1st place went to DeltaPrime, followed by Maniac Panda Games and MYFC.
