The Innovations in Media, Entertainment, Gaming and Web 3.0 Forum will explore the revolution of Web3 within media, marketing and entertainment. Web3 promises a more open, decentralized, and secure internet, enabled by advances in technologies such as blockchain and A.I. The potential disruptions to traditional markets seem limitless—especially in the context of smart contracts and the creative economy. It’s expected that the current Web3 global market size reached $3.2 Billion in 2021, it’s predicted by analysts to be a roughly $81.5 Billion market by 2030. Although the extent of Web3’s impact on the future of entertainment is yet to be fully developed, Web3 is poised to alter several key aspects of the media, entertainment and gaming industries. Delegates will come to together to learn from leaders in this new and ever-changing space, and to discuss the potential of Web 3.0 to disrupt traditional industries and their business models.
The conference format is designed to be educational with fireside chat style panels. Only a few educational standalone presentations will be permitted.
