Emergence Prague has quickly become one of the most relevant events for serious builders and investors in Web3. This year, the focus was on how AI is starting to merge with blockchain, as well as the practical challenges of scaling, liquidity, and regulation. For us, it was an opportunity to meet interesting teams, track market trends, and assess where capital is flowing next.

• Crypto asset management is changing – Institutional players are still interested but are shifting toward more structured investment products instead of speculative bets.
• Asia and the Middle East are growing fast – The biggest market opportunities might not be in the US or Europe but in regions that are actively pushing for crypto adoption.

• Regulation is a growing concern – Founders are thinking more about legal structures, compliance, and working with regulators instead of just building in the dark.

What stood out at Emergence Prague was how much the conversation has shifted from speculation to building things that actually work. Cross-chain infrastructure, regulatory adaptation, and institutional-grade investment products are where the momentum is heading. We’re paying close attention to projects that focus on solving real problems rather than chasing hype.
