Web3 Harbour, a nonprofit industry association for the advancement of a decentralized internet and economy, and Invest Hong Kong (InvestHK), the government department responsible for foreign direct investments into Hong Kong, announced Blocktober #24, a first of its kind strategic public-private collaboration that will bring three weeks of world-class events and experiences dedicated to Web3 innovation and exploration to Hong Kong from October 14 to November 1, 2024.

Hosted by Web3 Harbour with InvestHK as a strategic partner, Blocktober #24 will feature anchor events organized by global Web3 leaders that examine and advance the state of decentralized technologies, while dozens of community events will allow builders from around the world to connect, share, and collaborate on Web3 initiatives. Many of Hong Kong’s world-renowned restaurants, bars, galleries, and public spaces will also open their doors to the Web3 community, as the city becomes a sandbox for cultural transformation through technology. Over 50,000 global attendees are expected to convene in Hong Kong for Blocktober.

The Solana Foundation – a non-profit foundation dedicated to the decentralization, adoption, and security of the Solana network – will host a three day Hacker House that will provide opportunities for builders to gather, learn, and collaborate with the Solana community.
