TAMPA, Fla., Nov. 1, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — via CryptoCurrencyWire — For the second year in a row, Florida Bitcoin and Blockchain Summit (“FBBS”), which is produced by Cutting Edge Events LLC, opens its doors on November 4, 2022 at the Holiday Inn Westshore in Tampa, Florida. FBBS is a truly unique gathering with the main goal of making Florida a leader in blockchain and financial technology.
FBBS is Florida’s first “blockchain & fintech in Florida” focused event, driving innovation and partnerships across the rapidly evolving fintech sector. The event is designed to accommodate a wide range of stakeholders, established businesses, promising startups, energetic political leaders, influential decision makers, experienced regulators, popular fintech communities and evangelists to stimulate the sector’s growth in Florida and beyond.
This conference is specifically tailored for three types of attendees: those new to crypto investing and fintech who are interested in increasing their industry knowledge; stakeholders, institutions or startups ready to define the future of blockchain and fintech; and individuals and organizations advocating for Florida as the global leader in bitcoin, blockchain and related digital assets.
The event kicks off with a welcoming address by Tampa Mayor Jane Castor, who became a household name last year by announcing at FBBS that she would receive part of her salary in bitcoin.
The summit will also host several renowned speakers in various formats, including exciting panel discussions, insightful Q&A sessions, speaker seminars and deep dives.
One of the highlights will be the session with Joe Hamilton, Network Manager of Cityverse, which is a digital operating system for a physical city and publisher of Catalyst, entitled CityVerse: Make Metaverse local. This promises to be a fascinating session with the announcement of a new major investor in Cityverse, hot on the heels of the Tampa Bay Rays buying a stake in the organization.
Given the ongoing turmoil in financial markets worldwide, industry experts Chris Krimitsos, Chris Pizzo, Matt Rosen and Lucas Dimos will participate in a highly relevant panel discussion on Seeing opportunities in a bear market.
Other featured speakers include Gabe Higgins and Rosa Shores, founders of Blockspaces, one of Florida’s oldest bitcoin meetups, who will share their deep expertise and sharp insights. Samuel Armes of the Florida Blockchain Business Association and the Tortuga Web3 Fund will also take the stage.
On Thursday evening, November 3rd, attendees are invited to join the Coinflip launch party – an invaluable opportunity to network with industry peers, strengthen business networks and get fully energized for the full-day schedule the following day.
A lunch run by Tortuga Web 3 Fund will be served from 11:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. on Friday 4 November.
The Florida Bitcoin and Blockchain Summit will also host a luncheon fundraiser for those affected by Hurricane Ian.
After the summit’s last lecture, the Signature Close Party starts at 17.30, so that delegates can relax in an intimate and relaxed environment.
Attendees will be free to enjoy the vibrant Westshore Market just a few meters away from the Holiday Inn Westshore. There are many other fun activities nearby, including Tampa’s best shopping, entertainment district and bay beaches. Lowry Park Zoo, Downtown Museums, Spring Training, Busch Gardens, Florida Aquarium and Raymond James Stadium are all accessible from the convention site.
