Web3 for TradBiz — Introduction (1 of 14)
Web3 for TradBiz introduction
Understand Web3 and crypto foundations, use cases, value propositions, business implications, and investment opportunities
If you’re an established business executive or investor, you’re likely already familiar with cryptoassets like Bitcoin and Ethereum, and you may have heard a bit about Web3. By Web3, we mean the Internet-enabled market paradigm to which we are transitioning, where users own open, distributed networks that leverage cryptoasset incentives. You may be well into a successful business career where you earned the right degrees, mastered best practices, took on leadership roles, made tough decisions, and chalked up some wins along the way. But perhaps because you’ve done so well, you may still be firmly rooted in traditional business (TradBiz) models, and thus haven’t yet invested the time to understand and incorporate Web3 into your business and professional life.
This series introduces Web3 to TradBiz executives and investors, providing an overview of core concepts, emerging Web3 use cases, business implications and investment opportunities. We’ve adapted this content from the Web3 working sessions we facilitate regularly with leadership teams, investors, and other executives, drawing from initiatives we’ve worked on and strategic research we’ve conducted since 2015. Given the speed at which the Web3 space evolves, we update this content regularly based on market developments and reader feedback.
