As 2023 heats up, weâve been invigorated by a stream of positive developments and opportunities for the VeChain Foundation. From new technologies, developer hires and community growth to Steering Committee elections and exciting IRL projects, the VeChainThor blockchain is ready to take centre stage of the upcoming digital-sustainable web3 revolution.
On the topic of stages, one update weâre excited to share today is the launch of âThe HiVeâ, spiritual successor to the highly acclaimed âVeChain Summitâ from 2019!
The HiVe

After much hard work, weâre ready to formally unveil âThe HiVeâ, so-called in recognition of the the power of many to achieve common goals. The HiVe aims to foster collaboration across the Web3 community and act as an inclusive beacon for sustainability focused developments.
From tomorrow, February 2nd, 2023, weâll be launching The HiVeâs landing and registration pages where youâll be able to sign up to attend, free of charge.
Taking place on March 4th in Las Vegas, the event will not only feature VeChain-specific content, but also some fantastic examples of sustainability-focused applications of Web3 technologies from other projects and protocols.
X-nodes will have a guaranteed allotment of tickets (50) on a first come, first served basis with another 150 tickets allocated for the community. In addition, physical attendees will earn VeChainâs first official âProof of Participationâ (POP) NFT, unlocking benefits for holders on the day. Canât attend? Fear not! The entire event will be live streamed in HD across our global social channels.
A Day of Developments
Of course, a VeChain event wouldnât be complete without exciting news, so, rest assured, weâll be bringing plenty. Weâll share exciting developments about VeChainâs technologies, launch our new whitepaper and meet a new major partner weâre taking our âdigital ecosystemsâ concept to the global market with.
Weâll also be joined by prestigious speakers, including Nobel Prize winners, sustainability-focused projects and hear about some community-focused developments. Once the day is done, there will be evening activities and entertainment to enjoy with your fellow community members and Foundation team.
VeChainâs âThe HiVeâ In-Person Event
Weâre excited to kick off IRL events again after their notable absence in recent years. We look forward to the spiritual rebirth of the highly acclaimed VeChain Summit in a new, provocative format that represents our vision and focus for the years ahead.
Save the date and be sure to join us for this special day â you most definitely will not want to miss our journey through 2023!
