Returning Digital Week Online To Feature Blockchain Events For Innovators And Entrepreneurs<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

From Oct 9 – 16th, 2020, Digital Week Online will feature online events for innovators and entrepreneurs, including “The Babylon Project” blockchain hackathon and the \u201cGlobal Blockchain Day”<\/strong><\/p>\n

Building on the success of the first global gathering in May 2020, which attracted 170 top-level speakers, 60+ professional investors and 1,500 attendees, Digital Week Online<\/a> will be expanding to an even bigger community of innovators and entrepreneurs on 9th<\/sup>-16th<\/sup> October; \u201cKeeping the tech world united – changing the future! Online. For everyone.\u201d<\/p>\n

The event will kick off with the \u201cThe Babylon Project\u201d, an intense three-day (9-11th<\/sup> October) virtual blockchain hackathon that aims to democratize access to global innovation.<\/p>\n

On Oct 12th<\/sup>, \u201cGlobal Blockchain Day\u201d will take place. In here, top experts will tackle topics such as DeFi, central bank digital currencies, blockchain for corporates, institutional investments and mining.<\/p>\n

All participants then take a \u201cvirtual networking break\u201d on Oct 13th<\/sup> by joining one of the best intuitive AI-powered business matching platforms.<\/p>\n

Innovation Days run Oct 14-16th<\/sup> and are broken down by region for local tech gurus, mentors and investment community leaders to engage audiences on seven key tracks:<\/p>\n

– Covid19 and its impact on economies
\n– Fintech
\n– Privacy & Cyber Security
\n– Digital Marketing
\n– Impact & Sustainability
\n– Corporate Innovation
\n– Gaming & Entertainment<\/p>\n

Each track will be co-hosted by a reputable organization with deep expertise in that space. For example, the Privacy & Cyber Security track will be co-hosted by PrivacyRules<\/a> which unites law firms and cyber security companies across 50 countries. The Corporate Innovation track will be co-hosted by Plug and Play Tech Center<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 a global leader of the corporate acceleration programs and investments.<\/p>\n

Keeping faithful to their core community, Digital Week Online will also host a start-up competition and pitch sessions, where budding entrepreneurs will get feedback from top-investors and experts. Given the current global pandemic, the organization has waived the fees to participate.<\/p>\n

The event comes back picking up on the success of its May event, which attracted 170 top-level speakers, 60+ professional investors and 1,500 attendees. In that occasion, the event featured some of the biggest names in the industry such as:<\/p>\n

\u00b7 Jayne Chan,<\/strong> Invest Hong Kong, The Government of the Hong Kong
\n\u00b7 Jason Hsu,<\/strong> Taiwan Mt Jade Technology Association, Secretary General & \u00b7 Former Congressman of Taiwan
\n\u00b7

\n\u00b7
Xiaochen Zhang<\/a>,<\/strong> FinTech4Good, Founder & World Digital Economy Council, Co-chair
