The aim of ADAPT 2022 was to provide a complete overview of new technologies — Metaverse, Artificial Intelligence and Digital Assets- and how to use these technologies for business growth. Together with industry experts and prominent thought leaders, we effectively delivered multiple sessions providing participants with essential takeaways and action points.
Let’s Recap on ADAPT 2022
| 1. Metaverse |
Overall, the ADAPT International Convention 2022 was a resounding success, with 22,943 live participants and 677,728 video views, resulting in 1,096,806 minutes of video being watched. It was an excellent opportunity for attendees to learn from and connect with experts worldwide. The convention will surely be remembered as a valuable and memorable experience for all involved.
Metaverse
Metaverse is the talk of the town. The term has recently gained popularity due to Facebook’s recent announcement that it was changing its name to Meta in allusion to the upcoming Metaverse, which is said to revolutionize everything. When this happened, many people had no idea what Meta was talking about because the Metaverse is still a relatively new concept.
We have renowned speakers like Jason Low, Ivy Fung, Aaron Sarma, Yin Jian and Neo MA, who discussed in detail the fundamental concepts of the Metaverse and how to incorporate it into your business operations successfully. As Metaverse real estate values are skyrocketing, with some metaverse lots selling for as much as $15,000, we have Ar. Qhawarizmi Norhisham and Daniele Gambero to dive deeper into this topic. It was an incredible insight highlighting debates focusing on the Metaverse’s long-term intentions and core notions. Below are the Metaverse topics discussed by ADAPT 2022’s speakers:

Artificial Intelligence (AI)
Every day, there is a new AI invention with the potential to transform practically every industry. According to PwC analysis, AI will add $15.7 trillion to the global economy by 2030; therefore, it’s no surprise that businesses want to implement AI solutions. Is it true or just an inaccurate prediction?
Worry no more, we have answered all this in ADAPT 2022 as Oliver Tian, Arzmy Hargreaves, and Navin Sinnathamby shared their expertise on this matter. Moreover, we also have Dr. Sasa Arsovski, Angelica Salvi Del Pero, and Wang Qi Xin in the house; they shared the role of AI, the future of robotics, and how they will impact our lives for the better.

Digital Assets
The birth of blockchain technology marked the beginning of true digital asset innovation. With over 19,000 crypto projects, from Bitcoin and Ethereum to Dogecoin and Tether, digital assets are gaining popularity and are not going away anytime soon.
Hence why our experts in ADAPT 2022 tried their best to uncover all of the tricks and benefits of incorporating all these blockchain technologies into your business. George Wong and Mohamed DW discussed Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs), which appear to have sprung out of the ether this year by providing artists and content providers with a new option to monetize their commodities by buying and selling digital artwork. Although cryptocurrencies have a reputation for being risky investments, Mr. Vimal Selvamany and George Wong highlight their advantages. Following are the topics covered by industry leaders on Digital Assets:
