Down the Rabbit Hole: Web2 to Web3
CML and Zebu have been BFFs for as long as we can remember so we’re super excited to be hosting the official London Web3 Week kickoff party for the second year in a row! 💙💚
Our friends at Zebu are on a mission to drive mass adoption, and we’re right there with them.
So for this year’s kickoff, we’re zeroing in on mass adoption with our theme ‘Down the Rabbit Hole: Web2 to Web3.’ Expect all the signature elements of a CML event: fantastic networking, drinks, eats, and a panel of industry experts, but with a twist.
And by twist we mean a big ole party. 🪩
So get ready for the tone to be SET for the entire week!
LFG 🔥 Slowly then suddenly.
