BCNL Event: Navigating Web 3.0 at the ASML Headquarters
The main event of DBW23 will be hosted at the ASML headquarters in Veldhoven, next to Eindhoven, a buzzing region known for its thriving ecosystem of innovation and tech-companies. The full-day event will focus on the theme of true enterprise adoption and real-life applications in areas like supply chain management, ID verification, and asset tokenization.

" It couldn't be out of the question that BCNL is bringing together the entire web3 ecosystem in the world's smartest region – an insanely innovative hotbed – for a full day of web3. We will immerse attendees in interactive conversations and sessions at ASML's beautiful new headquarters. To this end, we have already managed to secure a number of global thought leaders. They will not only guide the audience through the latest technological developments but also share 'lessons learned' from their own organizations regarding implementation and adoption." Jan Scheele
