Uniting Visionaries and Global Leaders at the Proof of Talk Summit 2024: The Davos of Web3
Following the groundbreaking success of its inaugural edition, the Proof of Talk summit is returning for its second year.

A Platform for Meaningful Connections and Strategic Collaboration
The Proof of Talk summit welcomed over 1,500 participants last year, including key figures from Binance, VanEck, ripple, and the World Economic Forum, alongside CEOs and founders of leading blockchain companies and government representatives. Noted investor, venture partner, and Proof of Talk attendee Leeor Groen, Managing Director, Spartan Group, shared his experience by stating that it was “where Web3 meets the spirit of Davos.” The summit facilitated crucial discussions on rebuilding trust within the Web3 community, highlighting the need for a platform that encourages genuine engagement, meaningful connections, and strategic collaboration.

“We are overwhelmed by the positive feedback we received from our 2023 summit, with some attendees even sharing it reminded them of the World Economic Forum’s early days. We’re also delighted at all the interest from both speakers and potential sponsors for this year’s edition. Right now, the industry is on the brink of a new era, and we’ve harnessed this enthusiasm to curate an event with the most influential people from Web3, digital assets, and traditional finance to shape the agenda of the future. It’s important to provide an inspirational forum for these players, from founders and funds to legal experts and regulatory authorities, to engage in high-impact networking, share best practices, and have those necessary but tough discussions that will safely move the space forward.
