Entering New Markets

Several tech-first Asian countries are embracing web3, which has the potential to stimulate a new economic boom. On a recent tour of Japan, Sota Watanabe met with city majors to discuss applications for web3 technology. He is also set to become an adviser to GMO, one of Japan’s largest internet companies, and Dentsu, its largest advertising company.
