Ba-da-boom! Unveiling FORKED – a curated, Web3 founder-focused event born out of sheer determination in the face of challenges. 🍿 Take your popcorn. 📅 Save the date: May 8-9 in Hong Kong. Application only. FORKED was born out of necessity following the cancellation of BlockShow by Cointelegraph, a circumstance beyond our control. Do you all remember the hard fork of Ethereum back in 2016? It was pure courage, showing us it turned out to be a blessing in disguise.

From Founder’s stories of success & setbacks, to product launches, startup-VC networking, and exhibitions – we've got it all.
