The international event series seeks to connect Latinx communities in the Web3 space 鈥� strengthening relationships between those at the forefront of Web3 and empowering newcomers entering the sector by leveraging networking opportunities and support.

As such, Hola Metaverso provides a perfect opportunity for developers, co-founders, thought leaders, artists, investors and the like to network, collaborate and empower their communities 鈥� allowing them to grow in ideas, creativity and impact.

Confirmed speakers include Pierina Merino, founder and CEO of FlickPlay; Erick Rincon,聽 Director of the Universidad del Rosario Think Tank and former President of Colombia Fintech; Mar铆a Paz Gaviria, Director of Artbo; Leo Matchett, CEO of Decentralised Pictures Foundation; Diana Aguilar, Crypto Reporter; Lucia Diaz, Founder and Illustrator of LUCIA DIAZ, Jose Domingo, True Fashion鈥檚 NFT designer, Natalia Velez (International Tax Attorney for Riot Games / Disrupt3rs Founder) and Catie Romero-Finger, CEO and Co-Founder of BABs Labs.

On a mission to advance inclusion and amplify diversity in Web3.

Aimed at knowledge and experience dissemination through diverse outreach initiatives, Hola Metaverso is driving the inclusion of LatAm culture and community in the Web3 space 鈥� providing creatives with opportunities to identify mentors, connect with investors and join communities.

With a high rate of internet adoption and a strong remittances market, Latin America creates an environment where blockchain-based technologies can flourish.

Being integrated across numerous industries, this technological headway is revolutionising and optimising everyday processes, but in order for society to reap the maximum benefits of Web3, driving inclusion in the sector in which Latinx communities and other minorities continue to be left behind is critical.

In April this year, Hola Metaverso organised the first in-person event in Los Angeles, California 鈥撀� bringing together individuals, teams and Web3 (Metaverse, Blockchain, Crypto, NFTs, DeFi, and DAOs) communities from across the the LatAm and US 鈥� with participants coming from Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic, Mexico City, New York, Miami, and beyond.

Over 49% of Los Angeles County’s almost 10 million residents are Latin American, based on the 2020聽. However, in line with the predominantly white composition of the tech and startup worlds, much of the Latino community is left out of the conversation about Web3 applications.

鈥淒isrupt3rs is committed to promoting experiences that will lead Latinx communities to question the status quo. We believe that Web3 will bring forth a new opportunity for redistribution of wealth and those communities that organically gravitate towards these developments will have a head-start. We want to make sure our community has the right tools and network to enter this space from its inception,鈥� said聽Maria Londono, co-founder of Disrupt3rs.

鈥淭here are thriving creator communities in Latam that are building great things and they are eager to play a part in this new world economy that blockchain has opened up. I am confident that this is the market to pay attention to and looking forward to supporting their growth. BABS is excited to be partnering with Hola Metaverso to support their mission and get this message of inclusion out to the world,鈥� added聽Catie Romero-Finger of BABs Labs.

Committed to highlighting the importance and role of diversity in Web3, BABs Labs is an inclusive, full-service web3 communication and marketing agency that also has a full art-led NFT lab founded by Catie Romero-Finger and Nastya Adamova.

Aligned with the event鈥檚 mission to advance inclusion and amplify diversity in the evolving landscape, BABs Labs teamed up with Hola Metaverso as a media partner.

Oszie Tarula, Founder of Hola Metaverso聽summarised:

鈥淥ur Web3 community continues to grow organically and it is our mission to continue to bring awareness, education, workshops, and create and provide event experiences that connect our members.
