FOMO Asia is a global Web3 movement for strengthening attitudes toward blockchain. The team believes that a new meaning for FOMO — meaning “Fear of missing out” — should instead stand for “Force of Moving Onward.” Global Web3 thought-leaders, founders, builders, investors and regulators should be joining forces to bring blockchain innovations to the fore. Today, the team announced that its flagship event, FOMO Asia Genesis Conference, will take place from March 20 to 23 March in the CBD of Hong Kong, with the main stage at Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Center.
Over the past year, FOMO Asia has been widely embraced by dedicated local Web3 communities in prime locations across Asia, including Singapore, Bangkok, Manila and Taipei, with total attendees reaching over 3,000 as well as 5 million social media engagements.
Rubio Chan, chairman of FOMO Asia’s organizing committee, said: “Hong Kong has recently announced its policy statement on virtual asset development, the city is clearly embracing the next phase of the internet and digital ownership. Plus, the recent reopening of the city after the pandemic is equally encouraging. FOMO Asia decided to organize its flagship Genesis Conference in Hong Kong because it’s the right time and place to do so.” The flagship event is officially supported by Invest Hong Kong and the Hong Kong Tourism Board, spearheaded by the HKSAR Government.
The four-day event features keynote speeches, panel discussions, project showcases and networking opportunities across multiple venues at the heart of Hong Kong. Curated themes, such as Web3 bootcamp, a session to educate the public about fundamental blockchain knowledge, will run in parallel with the prominent speaking sessions by influential figures in the space. A wide variety of exciting satellite events are also expected to take place in the most vibrant areas of Hong Kong.
While waiting for the physical event to kick off, the FOMO Asia team has already started a viral online campaign to build trust for the Web3 communities. So far, they have interviewed Web3 leaders, such as Animoca Brands chairman and co-founder Yat Siu, Memeland CEO Ray Chan and more. By gathering wisdom, the FOMO Asia team will create the world’s first combined voice as an important showcase to the public that Web3 is here to stay and is trustworthy.
Ticket sales and partnership opportunities are now open for FOMO Asia Genesis Conference.
