Borderless 3.0, held in Port Harcourt, continues establishing itself as a pivotal event within the Nigerian and broader African Web3 space. By providing a platform for newcomers and seasoned professionals, the event underscores the importance of fostering a robust, locally driven Web3 ecosystem.
This year’s event, “ByteOnchain,” focused on providing attendees with insights into the structural evolution of blockchain governance and the significance of prioritizing user experiences in product development. The event’s forward-looking sessions emphasize empowering African tech communities to create and innovate independently.
One of the most impactful sessions was “Let’s Build DAO” by Great Adams, a blockchain developer and co-founder of Let’s Build DAO. Adams explored the growing importance of DAOs, explaining that these decentralized organizations are poised to redefine governance in the tech space by replacing traditional leadership structures with transparent, community-driven decision-making processes.
DAOs create an ecosystem where every member has a say, making them ideal for inclusive governance. This concept is particularly pertinent for regions like Africa, where decentralized systems can provide a more accessible and democratic alternative to conventional organizational models.
Borderless’ impact reaches beyond discussions and sessions from the event. It drove local development within the broader tech ecosystem. As Adams emphasized, Africa needs to create tools for Africans, reflecting a shift towards greater self-reliance in tech innovation on the continent.
Sessions at the event further elaborated on the practical advantages of Blockchain which include enhanced trust and transparency, global collaboration, and incentivized participation. Through these initiatives, Borderless has set the benchmark for other African-led Web3 businesses and enthusiasts.
Borderless 3.0 not only showcased the growing interest in the Web3 space in Port Harcourt but also demonstrated the potential for innovation and collaboration within the Nigerian tech community
