Held under the patronage of HH Sheikh Juma Ahmed Juma Al Maktoum, member of the ruling family of Dubai, WBS Dubai hosts the most influential thought leaders on blockchain, Crypto, NFT, Web 3.0 and the metaverse to explore the market’s effects on commerce, banking, games, culture and social development.
Dubai is known for its welcoming attitude towards crypto and blockchain technology.
