GrowthRadar & AI Block Summary
What are GrowthRadar and AI Block Summit?
GrowthRadar and AI Block Summit were two flagship side events I organized at TOKEN2049 Dubai. GrowthRadar drew 764 attendees and was focused on growth strategy in Web3 — bringing together protocol teams, growth operators, and marketing leaders. AI Block Summit was the bigger one at 1,496 attendees, centered on the AI × Crypto intersection, with speakers from Berachain, Dune, 0G, Eclipse, Wormhole, and others. Both events were designed as ecosystem catalysts — not just content stages but networking and deal-flow environments. They became part of Radarblock's brand identity and a major BD channel for us.
How do these fit into your growth philosophy?
Events are one of the most underrated growth channels in crypto. Everyone thinks about Twitter and Discord, but IRL creates the kind of trust and deal velocity that online channels can't match. GrowthRadar and AI Block Summit weren't vanity plays — they were strategic touchpoints. We used them to deepen relationships with existing clients, open doors with new protocols, and position Radarblock (and by extension, me) as a thought leader in Web3 growth. The combined 2,200+ attendees across both events came from some of the most active protocols and funds in the space.
