Zug, Switzerland, 8 March - The Cardano Foundation has today announced that the Cardano Summit 2024 will be held in Dubai, UAE from 23 to 24 October.

The Summit will provide both new and returning attendees with the chance to foster connections and drive the use of blockchain technology into new frontiers. Attendees will have the opportunity to learn from experts, establish relationships, and find inspiration as to how blockchain can bridge the gap between digital innovation and solving real-world problems.

Dubai has consistently ranked as one of the world’s most influential crypto hubs, with an encompassing blockchain strategy that makes the city a key region for the blockchain sector.  By hosting the Summit in Dubai for the second year, the Cardano community will have the opportunity to tap into the innovation showcased at the Summit last year, strengthening connections, and building new relationships in one of the nerve centers of the blockchain world.

The Cardano Summit is a global event to celebrate the Cardano ecosystem and inspire further innovation and growth.

The Cardano Foundation's CEO, Frederik Gregaard, commenting on the importance of the Summit 2024, said: "This is shaping up to be an exciting year for blockchain, with adoption across a wide range of sectors growing significantly. Dubai, in particular, has deepened the strategic deployment of blockchain in several key sectors, and we are thrilled to host the Cardano Summit in Dubai for the second time.
