As we step into a new chapter with HODL (Dubai), we are reminded that change isn’t just a shift in name—it’s the natural progression of a shared journey. When we conceptualised the World Blockchain Summit (WBS), we were looking for more than just an event but a way to get the ball rolling and spark a global blockchain movement.
Driven with a vision to help innovators and early adopters to shatter the glass ceiling for the limit of blockchain innovation, the World Blockchain Summit became a critical platform for forward thinking organisations and individuals to lay the groundwork for the global digital transformation movement.
Attracting global blockchain leaders like Sergey Nazarov, Co-Founder, of Chainlink Labs, Reeve Collins, Co-Founder, Tether and more to share their insights about blockchain solutions growing use cases. The summit has forged its own legacy of excellence as being one of the longest-running blockchain series that enables the world a sneak peek into these solutions’ applicability in addressing the needs of industries from finance to supply chain and now, metaverse.
Building on a vision to provide a space for top blockchain, cryptocurrency, web3 icons, policy experts, innovators and disruptors to collaborate and raise funds for their project, HODL unveils a new chapter for the global blockchain community.
What started as an event evolved into a platform where blockchain-based innovation, emerging cryptocurrencies and blockchain solutions would regularly push the envelope while disrupting the existing status quo of the global economies.
A Common Ground for Innovators, Believers and Doers
Realising the growing gap between the industry and advanced technology, the HODL Summit Dubai takes on a new role. It quickly became a space for global economies to explore the impact of blockchain-based innovations in critical sectors of the economy.
The platform is rapidly becoming a stage where theory becomes practice. More than just deliberating about the potential application of these solutions, the platfrom will set the stage for detailed policy discussions going beyond mere abstract concepts but talking about real-world use cases.
From Ideas to Impact
WBS wasn’t just another networking event, it was an enabler for innovators to launch their products into the market. The growth of blockchain solutions in the global economies is driven by a forward-thinking and collaborative ecosystem.
HODL Summit is a platform that is all about creating real, tangible outcomes. With access to investors who are passionate about the blockchain space, startups can present their ideas to key decision-makers, build relationships, and secure the financial backing needed to bring their innovations to market.
Through the connection forged and ideas shared on the sidelines of the event, we have seen solutions being born that have reshaped crucial industries like healthcare, gaming, supply chain, finance and more.
The Spirit of WBS Lives on in HODL
As we take a step towards the future with HODL Summit, we take our vision a step forward while taking cues from the lessons and connections that we have forged with the WBS. This new chapter builds on everything we’ve achieved, driven by the same commitment to blockchain’s potential.
While our name has changed, our mission hasn’t.
We will continue to build a platform where blockchain innovators, believers, and doers come together to make history. HODL isn’t just a rebrand; it’s a pledge to hold on to everything that has brought us here and to remain committed to the future of blockchain—together.
