It’s no secret that Web3 is growing faster than ever. Web3 technology is promoting the transformation of the global digital economy. As a global leader in technology and digital innovation, Japan is also actively promoting the development of Web3 technology.

During a session of the Budget Committee in the House of Representatives, the Prime Minister of Japan, Fumio Kishida, declared that Web3 presents a range of potential applications. For instance, DAOs could be established by individuals interested in tackling the same social issues, resulting in the creation of new communities. Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) may also provide creators with diversified income streams, thereby enabling them to maintain and increase the loyalty of their fans. Web3 has the potential to become a powerful tool for driving the “Cool Japan” policy and regional revitalization efforts. Mr. Kishida provided an affirmative response while actively employing terminology related to Web3.0.

It is worth noting that the “Cool Japan” policy was introduced by the Japanese government in the second decade of the 21st century as part of its international strategy centered around the cultural industry.

Today, we are pleased to launch Demo Day themed “Outlook of Web3 in Japan: リソースフロー”, a virtual event that combines hackathon, summit and demo day all into one streamlined experience, on February 28, 2023 held on the day. We sincerely invite you to participate in the Afflux Demo Day, discuss with us the development prospects and best practices of Web3 technology in Japan, and provide a communication and cooperation platform for industry experts, business representatives, investors, and technology enthusiasts. It is hoped that through this event, it will provide more impetus and support for the development of Web3 in Japan, and contribute to the transformation and innovation of the digital economy.

The Demo Day will incorporate dozens of co-organizers from the crypto field and nearly 50 venture capital, dozens of media outlets, and more than 50 Web3 early-stage projects.
