Innovate is an event series presented by The Tie at crypto’s major conferences, where investors and builders come together to engage in discussions that strengthen the industry’s momentum and increase interest in digital assets. The event series features three key pillars: networking with top-tier industry professionals, expert-led panels, and opportunities for 1:1 meetings with blockchain innovators.
InnovateDenver is the third of these invitation-only events held alongside ETH Denver. Hosted at Tom’s Watch Bar in Denver, CO, food and drinks will be available throughout the day.
