This week, the Venga team made its first public appearance at the 10th edition of the European Blockchain Convention (EBC), playing in our home field, Barcelona. As one of Europe’s top blockchain events, it gave us the perfect stage to officially introduce Venga to the crypto world, presenting our team, our mission, showcasing what we’re all about and putting the spotlight on the Venga app.
So, What Did We Get Up To at EBC?
We made sure Venga was hard to miss. With bold rooftop banners and a bustling booth, we were right in the thick of it, ready to connect with this amazing community. Our team members had countless conversations with curious visitors, talking about our mission to make blockchain innovations more accessible for everyone. It was a thrill to see the interest generated about what we’re building, and we loved sharing our vision face-to-face. Naturally, it was also a pleasure to meet the other participants and discover some very interesting projects on which we’ll keep an eye on.

But our presence wasn’t just about standing out and our leadership went on stage pitching Venga to a wider audience and participating in important discussions with other influential individuals.
• Our Chief Compliance Officer (CCO), Ana Carolina Oliveira, contributed to a crucial conversation on the panel “Will MiCA Be the Silver Bullet to Make the EU the Global Crypto Leader?”. As regulation continues to shape the future of crypto in Europe, and is paramount for the growth of the ecosystem, this panel explored the potential of MiCA (Markets in Crypto-Assets) to transform our home continent into a global hub for blockchain innovation.

• Our Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Michael Stroev, passionately pitched Venga on the main stage and shared our vision to onboard the next generation of crypto users. This made a perfect transition to his following participation in the engaging panel “Bringing the Next 1 Billion Crypto Users”, in which he discussed the future of mass crypto adoption and the role Venga will play in making the blockchain world accessible to all.

Wrapping Up in Style
To end the event on a cheerful note, we hosted a Drinks & DJ pop-up event at our booth. It was the perfect way to wind down after the intensity of the convention, giving us a chance to have a few drinks and chat with attendees in a more chill atmosphere. Great conversations, great vibes, and a great way to wrap up our first EBC and public appearance.
What’s Next for Venga?
EBC was just the beginning for us. This was our first official outing as Venga, but it definitely won’t be the last! With this convention under our belt, we’re excited to hit the road and make our presence felt at other upcoming events in Europe in the following months. We’ll be spreading the word about Venga, connecting with more people, and making known our mission to bring Web3 to everyone.
We continue our journey to change the way people discover and use innovative blockchain products and services, sharing our mission to bring the next wave of users into the world of Web3.
And to the European Blockchain Convention, see you next year!
