Combination of Web3 visionaries and global leaders
The Proof of Talk summit, known as Davos of Web3, returns for its second year following its success in 2023 and brings together thought leaders, investors, CEOs, founders, exchanges, digital asset managers and regulators for networking. I collected it. And a thought-provoking session. Held on June 10th and 11th at the historic Museum of Decorative Arts at the Louvre Palace in central Paris, the summit aims to deliver a unique event with a select audience dedicated to shaping the future of blockchain and global policy.
Last year, Proof of Talk attracted over 1500 ecosystem participants, including CEOs and founders of leading blockchain companies, including Binance, VanEck, Ripple, and leading figures from the World Economic Forum, as well as government representatives. After the event, prominent investor, venture partner, and Proof of Talk attendee Leeor Groen, Managing Director of Spartan Group, aptly remarked, “Where Web3 meets the spirit of Davos.” The summit fostered important discussions about rebuilding trust within Web3, reflecting the industry’s need for a platform that fosters authentic engagement, meaningful connections, and strategic collaboration.
With the SEC’s recent approval of a spot Bitcoin ETF and the cryptocurrency asset regulatory market further clarifying the space in Europe, the stage is truly set for widespread blockchain adoption and development of digital assets beyond cryptocurrencies. This year’s conference will leverage and reflect this activation, bringing together blockchain and Web3 experts from around the world to engage with C-suite executives, explore partnerships, and create investment opportunities that will reshape the industry and create new paradigms.
The highly curated 2024 Forum is expected to attract over 2,500 participants. Combined with a speaker lineup comprised of CEOs, founders, and leaders from the Web3 and digital asset industries, the summit features impact-driven networking and a sophisticated agenda. Some of the speakers include:
· Joseph Lubin Consensys CEO and Founder
· Jenny Johnson, CEO of Franklin Templeton
· Tim Draper (DFJ founder)
· Ophelia Snyder, Co-Founder and Chairman, Ark 21 Shares
· Mihailo Bjelic, co-founder of Polygon
· Raoul Pal, cryptocurrency macro economist
· Yat Siu (Chairman of Animoka)
· John Wu, President, Ava Labs
· Justin Sun (Tron founder)
· Marieke Flament, former CEO of Near Foundation

· Matthew Siegel, Head of Digital Assets at Van Eck
· Christopher Donovan, COO, NEAR Foundation

· Digital asset lead for over 30 major TradFi banks
· More than 100 VC participating partners
The summit’s agenda also actively reflects the growing importance of Web3, with more than 20 panels, 10 workshops, and 5 keynotes and firesides on key topics shaping the future of Web3. This includes real-world asset tokenization, AI blockchain integration, gaming advancements, and smart contract security.
Zohair Dehnadi, Co-Founder of Proof of Talk and Partner at X-Ventures, said: “We are overwhelmed by the positive feedback we have received from the 2023 Summit. Some attendees shared this feedback, which reminded them of the early days of the World Economic Forum. We are also very pleased with the interest from both speakers and potential sponsors for this year’s event. The industry is now entering a new era, and we have leveraged this passion to curate an event that will shape the agenda of the future with some of the most influential people in Web3, digital assets and traditional finance. From founders and funds to legal experts and regulators, it’s important to provide an inspiring forum for these players to engage in influential networking, share best practices and have the necessary but difficult discussions to safely move the space forward. It’s important. We are proud to offer this exclusive experience to the industry in one of Paris’ most iconic locations and we look forward to seeing everyone in June!”
