In this special episode, I gave an introductory seminar in a room full of senior executives (all Thunderbird alumni) working in various industries about the concepts, technologies, and potential applications of Web3.

I delved into various Web3 concepts, including blockchain technology, cryptocurrencies, smart contracts, decentralized finance (DeFi), non-fungible tokens (NFTs), decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs), decentralized science (DeSci), and others.

I also discussed the potential applications of Web3 in various industries, such as real estate, science, technology, cloud services, and monetization through activities like playing, reading, walking, and even eating and sleeping.

Huge thanks to Thunderbird School of Global Management Tokyo Chapter for organizing the location for this seminar!
