Raine Laluna, the mind that spearheaded CONN3CT, believes that CONN3CT creates targeted events to help Web3 adoption in Cebu. It will help bridge the gap between Web2 and Web3 by connecting individuals and communities to Web3 resources, including the network and opportunities. Since mass adoption is on its way, Raine wanted to seamlessly connect existing web2 knowledge to web3, more than just its awareness. By fostering a strong Web3 community in Cebu, CONN3CT aspires to expand their reach to other Visayan regions and create a stronger local Web3 community.
