The Web3PH Summit 2022 is set to debut its first edition of community-run, web3-related events from October 28 to 29, 2022 at Draper Startup House in Makati City, Philippines.

Organized by Web3PH, an independent organization that aims to unite all web3-related communities, the two-day hybrid event brings together web3 industry experts, builders, artists, and entrepreneurs in the country as it offers a series of practical and hands-on learning activities and information that will enable attendees to build projects and find their own tribes in web3.

Attendees will get to hear from an A-list of distinguished speakers such as Luis Buenaventura II, Founder of Cryptopop Art Guild (CPAG) and Country Manager for the PH Yield Guild Games (YGG); Patrick Lao, Head of Metaverse at PDAX; and Chezka Gonzales, Founder of Women of Substance, as well as many other local experts in the blockchain space.

The summit will also host a number of sessions that would tackle how different brands and organizations are already disrupting industries with their projects in web3.

Christopher Star, one of the main organizers of the summit, shares, “The Web3PH Summit is an event for the community, by the community. The entire team is excited to bring everyone together and further foster the vibrance of our local web3 space.”

Empowering the next generation of web3 builders

The emergence of web3 represents one of the most important moments in technology in recent memory – arguably as important as when people started using the internet.

The Web3PH Summit is now actually on a mission to push the country forward by empowering the next generation of web3 builders. It aims to highlight why the web3 movement is going to be a pivotal part of history and how projects in this space will disrupt businesses, governments, and institutions.

The Web3 PH Summit is co-presented by Playground Zero and sponsored by Philippine Web3 Festival, F(DEV), Delysium, and Draper Startup House.

Other community partners helping make this event possible are PDAX, Moneybees, DEVCON, The Mega Maxi, Crypto Pinas, Filipinas NFT, Tetrix, FHMOMS, WheninManila.com, Startup Academy, Social Media Marketing Philippines, and SWAG by Qwote.

One of the community’s biggest supporters is local venture builder, F(DEV). “We’re so glad to finally see the Web3 community have an opportunity to meet and learn from each other. This is the future of tech and we are at the starting block. Open innovation is key in accelerating growth in the country’s digital economy and we, as venture builders, want to make sure that we do our part in ensuring our creators, startup entrepreneurs, and the local Web3 landscape feel supported,” said Xavier Marzan, F(DEV)’s CEO and Managing Director.

“As part of our global mission to enable 1 million entrepreneurs, we are excited to support Web3PH in bringing the community together and connect on how to shape the future of decentralized economies and ownership for the entrepreneurs, early adopters, and builders in Web3,” chimed in Cristian Munoz, Founder of Draper Startup House Manila.

For his part, Janze de Guzman, Co-Founder and CEO of Playgroundzero, said, “Playgroundzero is a firm believer in the future of Web3 and we’re now looking to support its adoption in the country by offering new opportunities for gamers, guilds, and game studios to connect, build, and earn together.”
