About
Chains Beyond Borders is a global Web3 investment community. It started in July 2023 as an online session where investors heard directly from L1 and L2 protocols, and has since met in Dubai, Davos and Singapore.
What we do
We give investors and blockchain protocols one place to meet across borders. Protocols report progress and performance, investors ask the questions they would ask in a diligence call, and founders get in front of both.
In-person events run alongside the industry's big weeks, from TOKEN2049 in Singapore to Blockchain Life in Dubai and the World Economic Forum in Davos, so the people worth meeting are already in town. Online editions keep the community going in between.
