The inaugural Dubai Metaverse Assembly first announced by Sheikh
Hamdan bin Mohammed, Crown Prince of Dubai and organised by the
Dubai Future Foundation, took place on September 28 and 29. The
Crypto Oasis, the fastest growing blockchain and Web3 ecosystem in
the world, hosted the three sessions at the event that brought
together regional and international experts in Dubai to shape the
future of the metaverse.
The first session featured Meta Decrypt discussing "Design Thinking
- Digital Economy in the Metaverse". This was an enriching and
engaging talk about creating a more participatory economy and also
discussed a broad range of metaverse use cases from strategy
through execution. It is expected that a fully realised metaverse
won't just be a part of the digital economy, but its own
quasi-independent economy that may end up reweaving the fabric of
the digital world.
The second session was a panel discussion on Venture Capital in the
Metaverse. The participants included:
- Valerie Hawley - True Global Ventures
- Jawad Ashraf - Virtua
- Domenik Maier _ iBLOXX
- Saqr Ereiqat - Crypto Oasis
The metaverse is a venture capitalist's dream. The metaverse
represents a real opportunity for cutting-edge innovation and
significant startup returns. VCs around the world acknowledge that
it has the potential to be a multi-trillion dollar market. With
advances made in bandwidth, chips, software, and new (hardware)
platforms, metaverse adoption is expected to rise, which is why
there is an abundance of capital in this space.
The final session was a thought leadership talk by Crypto Oasis
Co-Founder Saqr Ereiqat titled "Web2 is Silicon Valley, Web3 is
Crypto Oasis".
Speaking about the event and the Crypto Oasis sessions, Ereiqat
said, "The Dubai Metaverse Assembly is another step towards the
United Arab Emirates being the leading digital economy. The
'Digital Economy Strategy' aims to double the contribution of the
digital economy to the UAE's gross domestic product (GDP) from 9.7
percent as of April 2022 to 20 percent by 2031. It also seeks to
enhance the position of the UAE as a hub for the digital economy in
the region and globally as we are already witnessing and supporting
an influx of intellectual resources into the UAE.
"We believe an ecosystem consists of Talent, Capital, and
Infrastructure, with the UAE bringing those three together. We have
therefore coined the MENA region as Crypto Oasis. At the Dubai
Metaverse Assembly, we proudly hosted three sessions to educate,
inspire, and contribute. Today, the Crypto Oasis, with the UAE at
the heart of it, is pushing the frontier in the Web 3 space. While
Web 2 was primarily based out of Silicon Valley, events like the
Dubai Metaverse Assembly and others will ensure that Web 3 is the
Crypto Oasis."
The metaverse assembly cements Dubai's position as the world's
metaverse capital as it looks to leverage Dubai's digital
infrastructure and support global transformations and disruptions.
The flagship event explores the digital economy and identifies
opportunities to help startups, entrepreneurs, communities,
investors, and governments unlock the unlimited potential of the
metaverse to create a bolder future. The Crypto Oasis is delighted
to be part of this first of its kind event that sees the world's
leading metaverse experts converge in Dubai.
