The past couple of years have been remarkable in terms of welcoming brand-new tech concepts into our everyday lives; today, Web3 technologies revolutionize how we socialize and communicate with hyper-realistic avatars through immersive experiences such as the Metaverse, highly profitable play-to-earn games, rising trend of NFT trading, and many more. All these new challenges push us forward, make us think out-of-box, and dare to look beyond despite all the tiny, not-so-important disagreements. 

In this regard, MENA ICT Forum 2022, a premier 2-day international tech event that took place on November 16-17 at King Hussein Bin Talal Convention Center, Dead Sea – Jordan, was beyond expectations. The event was organized by the Information and Communications Technology Association of Jordan (int@j) under the Patronage of His Majesty King Abdullah I ibn Al Hussein with a focus on “fusing technologies, digitizing & bridging borders, reshaping the generations of the future.”

Among the thousands of participants were the Metafluence CEO & Co-Founder Emin Vali and many other Web3 executives from various countries, including but not limited to Jordan, Lebanon, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Austria, Germany, Romania, United Kingdom, United States, Turkey, Singapore, Brazil, etc. 

Metafluence has a proud story that evolved from one of the leading influencer marketing platforms, Keepface, to an influencer-driven social metaverse with lots of monetization opportunities for not only influencers but also every individual. In his speech, Emin Vali gave brief yet insightful information about Metafluence and mentioned how becoming an early resident in Metafluence City will open endless possibilities to people who seek new ways to fulfill their true potential in the Web3 realm.

Mr. Vali said the Metaverse will redefine fashion, event organization, tourism, education, and many other industries, and Metafluence has an absolute intention to play a game-changing role in this transformation.

Let’s hear out what Emin Vali thinks in this regard:

Those were decisive moments where global tech & innovation gurus, Blockchain evangelists, and Web3 pioneers expressed their opinions under the same roof, felt the same atmosphere, and addressed important breakthroughs on a global scale. Other noteworthy keynotes from influential industry leaders also emphasized the importance of the Metaverse adoption and its potential outcomes for our common interests, as well as highlighting how to reconcile with the diverse perspectives of future tech trends. 

For instance, H.E. Kholoud Saqqaf (Minister of Investment – Jordan), May Li (Huawei Middle East Carrier Network Business Group, Solution Marketing VP), Eugene Kaspersky (Kaspersky CEO), Filios Papastylianou (Strategy Director HCM, ECEMEA at Oracle) and others underlined significant tech challenges concerning all of the world and tipped off how to embrace them.

The Forum had a pretty busy, rich & intense program; hence it’s no surprise that speakers took the initiative to discuss almost every aspect of modern-day tech advancements, including a wide range of topics like Web3 startup ecosystems, digital technologies, IoT, FinTech, AgriTech, new investment technologies, AI, VR, cybersecurity, 5G, smart cities, digital transformation, and many more. In addition, exciting pavilions, exhibitions, and startup village booths made the entire event even more vibrant & “immersive.”

The outcomes of the Forum are quite valuable; it was one of the best opportunities for tech leaders to come along and exchange ideas on a globally-acclaimed tech platform, especially in these vulnerable and sometimes uncertain times. 

Consequently, MENA ICT FORUM 2022 enhanced the networking capabilities of global & regional top-notch tech startups and enabled them to engage in-person in a productive gathering. As Metafluence, we got pretty awesome impressions and built great networks during the event, and we’re more than sure these will contribute to our future collaborations astonishingly.
