• The IOTA Foundation’s selection as a key participant at the CEATEC conference in Japan is a significant recognition of its contribution to advancing Web3 and Web2 technologies.
• IOTA, with its groundbreaking Tangle technology, is poised to leverage the global stage of CEATEC to highlight its potential impact on the Japanese and global markets.

The IOTA Foundation has been making inroads at some of the key blockchain conferences happening worldwide. In a similar development, UAE’s official startup delegation has chosen the IOTA Foundation as a key participant at the upcoming CEATEC conference, in Japan, scheduled from October 17th to 20th.

This acknowledgment stands as a significant accolade and serves as evidence of IOTA’s essential contribution to advancing Web3 and Web2 technologies. IOTA has solidified its position as a prominent platform for driving innovations in both Web3 and Web2 domains.

Leveraging its groundbreaking Tangle technology, IOTA is at the forefront of shaping the future of open, equitable, highly efficient, and decentralized networks underpinned by a Directed Acyclic Graph. This innovative paradigm not only elevates security and scalability but also ushers in a wide array of fresh use cases spanning diverse industries.

At CEATEC, a prestigious global technology event centered around advancements aligned with the vision of “society 5.0,” IOTA is set to make its presence known at the UAE booth. This presents a remarkable occasion to highlight IOTA’s potential impact on the Japanese and global markets.

Anticipating interactions with industry leaders, entrepreneurs, and forward-thinkers at CEATEC, the IOTA team stands prepared to offer insights, demonstrations, and engaging discussions concerning IOTA’s capacity to revolutionize both the Japanese and worldwide markets. This marks a pivotal moment in our journey, and we are enthusiastic about sharing the boundless possibilities that IOTA brings to the forefront of technological evolution.

IOTA and European Blockchain

The IOTA Foundation has been already making huge efforts to establish a strong foothold in the European continent. The IOTA Foundation has taken a pioneering role in shaping the regulatory landscape within the European blockchain market.

Collaborating closely with the European Blockchain Association, the European Crypto Initiative, and the Global Blockchain Business Council (GBBC), they have been instrumental in formulating regulations for the decentralized finance (DeFi) sector in Europe.

The EU has unveiled the Markets in Crypto Assets (MiCA) rules for dealing with crypto assets. However, the IOTA Foundation believes that they are insufficient to address all eyes of the decentralized finance (DeFi) market as well as smart contracts.

Earlier this year in April, the IOTA Foundation also became part of Europe’s most important blockchain councils INATBA, the International Association for Trusted Blockchain Applications. INATBA’s mission is to unite diverse stakeholders within the crypto ecosystem, encompassing DLT developers, users, policymakers, and regulators, fostering a collaborative effort to advance technology and enhance its adoption.

Established in 2019 in Brussels, INATBA boasts a membership of 170 organizations, with the IOTA Foundation also being among its founding members. Furthermore, IOTA actively participates in multiple INATBA working groups, including the Social Impact & Sustainability Working Group (SISWG), the Privacy Working Group (PWG), and the Finance Working Group (FWG).
