Web3 has always been built by its community and for its community. The Internet Computer Protocol (ICP) Held a 24 hour ICP Global Community Townhall with 12 segments. Each 12 segments were allocated for a ICP community which encouraged both global and local participation. The event was hosted on “X” which drew an audience of over 1.5 million attendees where Internet Computer Protocol (ICP) has announced ambitious plans for global adoption.

What is Internet Computer?:

Internet Computer is a decentralized blockchain network designed to host the next generation of software and services on the internet. Powered by the Internet Computer Protocol (ICP), it enables developers to build and deploy secure, scalable, and interoperable applications without reliance on traditional data centers or cloud platforms. With a growing ecosystem of developers, entrepreneurs, and enthusiasts, Internet Computer is leading the charge toward a decentralized future.

Internet Computer Protocol’s ambitious goals

Building on its momentum from a year of remarkable growth, Internet Computer unveils its "ICP HUBS" adoption strategy, aimed to elevate global adoption and accommodate a wider audience. With a focus on immersive experiences tailored for developers, professionals, enthusiasts, investors, ICP aims to raise the bar for community engagement in the crypto sphere.

The cornerstone of this strategy is the introduction of 13 flagship "ICP HOUSES" events scheduled throughout 2024, coinciding with major crypto and blockchain conferences worldwide. These two-day intensive gatherings will offer attendees a unique experience by blending education, development, collaboration, and celebration under one roof.

According to Emilio Canessa, Head of Global Adoption at DFINITY Foundation:

"GLOCAL (global + local) is the key for an effective adoption strategy. While 24 ICP HUBS are in full swing on a regional basis, ICP HOUSES will connect the dots around the world, providing valuable cross-pollination opportunities for the Ecosystem. ICP has both, now."

Designed to have multiple functions, ICP HOUSES will host a diverse set of activities that will include educational sessions, hackathons, presentations, networking events, and overnight stays for hackers. Attendees can expect a productive yet stress-free environment by connecting with industry leaders, technical experts, and fellow enthusiasts.

The inaugural ICP HOUSES events kicked off in Seoul (for Buidl Asia) and Hong Kong (for Web3 Fest), and will be followed by 11 additional events in key locations including Switzerland, Germany, Turkey, Canada, Indonesia, Kenya, Poland, Vietnam, Thailand, Singapore, and India. Each event promises to provide an overview packed with information about the rapidly growing ICP ecosystem to empower collaboration and innovation on a global scale.

Yearly Recap of ICP HUBS NETWORK

In just one year, the ICP HUBS NETWORK has undergone a significant transformation, evolving into a global decentralized network comprising 24 chapters with a presence in 40 countries. This reach amplifies the influence of Internet Computers as a driving force in the global Web3 landscape.

The center of ICP’s philosophy is the focus of "glocal" empowerment. They aim to emphasize and support community development and regional adoption. Through a network of decentralized hubs, ICP is redefining how the community engages with blockchain technology, encouraging collaboration and innovation across all stages.

Growing away from traditionalc and centralized approaches, the ICP HUBS NETWORK signals a new era that is focused on community-driven innovation and empowerment in the crypto world.
