We networked, learnt and engaged - Know about our experience at Future Blockchain Summit
With flying cars, virtual DJs and interactive robots, this year’s GITEX GLOBAL was a treat for all technology lovers. It was the world’s largest, most inclusive tech & startup event which unveiled new worlds of promise. The event was a gateway into an unimaginable new digital universe–from the transcendent power of 6G to the vast virtual business ecosystems of the Metaverse.
Our team at InfoBeans was honored and exhilarated to attend the event and take a step towards the future of technology. We looked forward to understanding how new technologies will impact the entire life span of humans. As tech enthusiasts, we can say with certainty that this was an event that we will remember for a long time.
We attended the Future Blockchain Summit, the MENA region’s largest Blockchain conference and exhibition, and X-VERSE, the year’s biggest metaverse wonder.
These events provided a platform for hugely talented innovators who talked about all things blockchain – i.e. regulations, cryptocurrencies and Metaverse. Some of the biggest innovators who participated in GITEX GLOBAL included:
MetAmazonia: MetAmazonia is a next-gen, photorealistic 3D metaverse. With the use of blockchain and the metaverse, it will help the fight against climate change, deforestation and poverty. This is something that will have a significantly positive impact on the lives of millions of people.

A sports camp for the mind
Every day in the session felt like a rigorous exercise for our brains. We learnt something new every day and met some of the brightest minds in tech. The thought-provoking sessions were both informative and exciting. Some of the most memorable sessions our team attended were:

Our thoughts
Metaverse is the future as human behavior is changing rapidly. Science fiction is slowly turning into reality. People are going to concerts with holograms. Metahumans exist. Soon, office spaces will have digital twins.
We, at InfoBeans, create exclusive digital transformation experiences and are banking on how metaverse promises to be an exciting new frontier in customer and employee engagement. It will change shopping, entertainment and banking experiences and make them super impactful and easy.
This was an absolutely amazing learning experience for us and it exceeded all our expectations. We look forward to attending GITEX GLOBAL 2023 next year to see the new leaps the world of technology takes.
