We're Back and Better than Ever!
If you've been with us for a while, you'll know that we're a Web3 hub for culture, community, education, and empowerment. While we're primarily based in the UK with our headquarters in London, our involvement in the global Web3 ecosystem frequently takes us abroad to collaborate with other international hubs (more on this topic in the upcoming articles.)
πIMPORTANT: In this article, we'll recap some past events and give you a sneak peek at what's coming up in the next few months. Be sure to read through to the end for some exciting freebies!

SamsungKX, is a unique and immersive brand experience space located at Kingβs Cross in London.
We secured the space at the very end of the year. With the holiday season, we weren't certain about the turnout, but to our pleasant surprise, we sold out. This was yet another testament to the strength and dedication of our community.
The venue was magnificently transformed into a showcase of immense artistic talent, thanks to the vision and efforts of our curators, Meg, Impact, BKyle They brought together a diverse group of over 30 artists, creating an environment that perfectly married technology and creativity ππ¨π
