Web3 Stronger Together Challenge
πŸ”ˆ The Blockchain Recorded Podcast (i.e. BRP) is a media partner with the Web3 Stronger Together Challenge initiative. Our collaborative role extends to hosting topic-specific panels to facilitate discussion and perspectives within varying industries related to the Web3 space. πŸ”ˆ

Main goals of the Web3 Stronger Together Challenge:
⚑️ The main goal is to demonstrate the powerful β€˜Together’ effect. As I use to say, Together is much more than a word, it’s magic
⚑️ We aim to show to the whole Crypto industry and beyond that, the Web3 revolution is not about competition but rather about cooperation.
⚑️ You know, we are really supportive, welcoming, open-minded and inclusive, it’s not a marketing speech
⚑️ This initiative is also a way to confirm our long-term commitment, regardless of the bear or bull market situation, and our determination to keep on building, every day guided by a long-term vision and a humanistic philosophy
