CARDANO SUMMIT 2023
2nd November 2023 marked a significant milestone for Unbox as we officially joined the Cardano Blockchain Community at the Cardano Summit 2023 in Dubai. While Cardano has been an integral part of Unbox's journey, building our Infinity Protocol on Cardano for the past 3+ years, implementing 9+ projects across the globe in the last 6 months, raising 8,000,000 Euros in our Series A (you get the picture ). Our presence at the Cardano Summit still managed to raise some eyebrows and shock a few people. Why, you might wonder?
Reason for Shock 1: Unbox thrives (and has thrived) on seeking answers and validation by looking outward, not inward. Real use cases in real market environments, and these are usually not found if you don't leave your backyard. So we left to build something great and seeked only to return until we knew we had something.
Reason for Shock 2: Unbox is one of the largest companies actively building on the Cardano network that no one has heard of, boasting a talented team of 45 individuals, successful projects spanning Humanitarian Aid, Urban Mining and Community Currencies. We're not just developing in the blockchain space anymore, we're executing global and revenue-generating projects (and if we're being honest, this is more of a rarity than we thought in the industry).
The Cardano Summit 2023 has proven how much this ecosystem has to offer, and shown us how much Unbox has to give. We believe Unbox epitomizes the true potential of Web3 technology, promoting transparency, traceability, Self-Sovereign Identity and much more. Unbox will be back next year. Bigger and better than ever!
PRODUCT & TECH OFFSITE
Unbox Team Embarks on Product/Tech Meetup in Indonesia. On the evening of Sunday, November 5th, the first members of the Unbox team touched down in Indonesia, marking the commencement of our eagerly anticipated Product/Tech Meetup. Throughout the week, the Product Team collaborated closely with the Development and Design Teams to strategize the execution of our roadmap for the next 6 to 12 months, following the successful completion of our Series A funding round.
Monday morning saw the arrival of our colleagues from Java, Nigeria and Serbia, at our villa. Following initial catch-ups and meetings, the teams dove into collaborative work. The benefits of in-person collaboration became evident as we swiftly identified and addressed bugs that might have otherwise gone unnoticed for weeks in an entirely online setting. Thursday morning brought the arrival of the design team, injecting excitement into the process as we explored enhancements to elevate user experience.
A week of intensive iteration, research, and development concluded with a light-hearted evening of bowling, providing a relaxing atmosphere for the team to unwind before their respective departures. In total, 11 colleagues hailing from 8 different nationalities participated in our Product/Tech Meetup, significantly streamlining our roadmap delivery process. The experience was both enriching and productive, and we eagerly anticipate the next edition!
