The World Funding Summit and Expo, with the mission of widening access to capital for small businesses and underserved markets, is scheduled for the 17th and 18th of November 2017, at the Los Angeles Convention Center. A knowledge-driven platform for financial innovation, World Funding Summit is a mission-driven event in modern venture financing. It aims to unite investors and financiers to educate, connect and empower the next generation of entrepreneurs, creators and financiers on a global scale.

Upwards of 1,000 delegates are expected to join the event at the Los Angeles Convention Center in order to hear about cutting-edge technology in numerous venture financing related topics, including a new track added this year, ICO, cryptocurrencies and blockchain enabled platforms. The annual gathering attracts high profile investors and forward-looking financiers, along with leading entrepreneurs, executives, academia, and media who meet to discuss the issues of access to capital for entrepreneurial ventures.

Victoria Silchenko, PhD, a thought leader in alternative finance and the creator of the summit, explained: “We are witnessing a typical ‘hockey stick’ when the ‘progressive part’ of a finance population is ‘vesting’ and Main Street is starting to catch up. If anything, the ICO world has already suffered badly from bad actors and stories and I would love to see it entering the age of maturity and look forward to it having the proper legal framework on a global scale. We are very excited to have DMarket and DreamTeam on board as our Premium Sponsors who represent a new generation of founders looking for an impact and transparency while forming the progressive part of financiers utilizing blockchain,”

CEO and founder of DMarket — a cross-game marketplace using blockchain and smart contract technology, Volodymyr Panchenko said: “With a blockchain technology, we are generating a new chapter of the global gaming industry, creating a new economy worth more than $450 billion. It’s a step ahead not only for the gaming world but also for many other markets. We are happy to share our expertise during the World Funding Summit,”

Alexander Kokhanovskyy, CEO and founder of blockchain-based Esports recruitment and management platform DreamTeam, remarked: “Looking forward to take part in the World Funding Summit as it is one of the most important events for the new-generation companies like DreamTeam. I’m pretty confident that blockchain technology, which is the core of DreamTeam, will skyrocket the Esports and many other industries. We are creating a new future now and I’m glad that DreamTeam is one of its founders,”
