As you already know from the previous announcement, Asia Blockchain Summit took place in Taipei city, 2–3 July. We were glad to attend this prominent event, which played host to a large number of blockchain and crypto industry experts.

These days were full of fascinating presentations, lively discussions, great after-parties and super effective networking! What is more, Taipei city itself added more impressions by its unforgettable atmosphere.

The networking started even before the Conference began. ABS Conference pre-party hosted by Contentos project in W Taipei hotel brought together a variety of projects representatives from different parts of the world, creating a super friendly environment.

Thus, during the summit we managed to establish the contacts and discuss the future collaboration with a wide range of the industry experts, including exchanges leaders, developers, consultants, representatives of innovative projects and mass media.

What is more, we managed to fall in love with Taipei, so colorful and at the same time modern and dynamic city. It struck us by its special atmosphere, by gorgeous architecture. For instance, by colourful temples:
