As Dubai’s Binance Blockchain Week (BBW) draws the attention of the global Web3 industry, a series of in-depth industry exchange events are also taking place. On December 4, the KOL GOLF After Party, jointly hosted by Klickl, Techub News, and 1783DAO, and co-organized by BroadChain, WIS (World in Shadow), JDI, and the DID Alliance, was held in Dubai.
This event brought together representatives from global investment institutions, industry veterans, and key opinion leaders (KOLs), aiming to establish an efficient and private dialogue platform to jointly explore the development trends and cooperation opportunities in the digital economy.
Focusing on In-Depth Industry Dialogue, Discussing the Future of Digital Trust
As one of the side events during Binance Dubai BBW, this event used high-end indoor golf as a social medium, with the core goal of providing industry leaders with a space away from the hustle and bustle of the exhibition to focus on intellectual exchange.
In a relaxed atmosphere, participants discussed the current core topics of the Web3 industry—including the application of decentralized identity (DID) in compliant finance, the path choices for RWA asset on-chain, and the evolution direction of infrastructure. This form of deep social interaction brought industry builders closer together and facilitated the formation of multiple strategic cooperation intentions.
Strategic Roadshow: DID Alliance Builds Web3 Digital Sovereignty Infrastructure
As one of the core organizers of this event, Eugene Xiao, Chairman of the DID Alliance, delivered a brief speech titled "Connecting the Globe: From Digital Sovereignty to Business Empowerment," showcasing the vision and ecosystem layout of the DID Alliance to the global elites present.
Eugene first elaborated on the core mission of the DID Alliance. He pointed out that as the Web3 industry penetrates the mainstream world, traditional centralized identity systems can no longer meet the growing needs for privacy protection, data sovereignty, and cross-chain interoperability.
“DID (Decentralized Digital Identity) is not just a technical standard; it is the cornerstone of trust for the future digital economy.” Eugene stated that the DID Alliance is committed to building a decentralized, cross-sovereign, and compliant digital identity infrastructure. By returning ownership of identity to users, DID technology can effectively solve trust issues in the development of the digital economy, providing secure and reliable underlying support for application scenarios such as DeFi, SocialFi, and RWA.
Empowering Global Business: The Strategic Positioning of the Asia Pacific Innovation Center
After introducing the technical foundation, Eugene presented to Middle Eastern and global partners the recently launched ecosystem segment in Kuala Lumpur—the Asia Pacific Innovation Center (APIC).
In his speech, Eugene defined APIC’s strategic role: “APIC is not just a physical space; it is the bridge connecting real-world business and the Web3 world within the DID ecosystem, serving as a business accelerator and capital connector for global enterprises.”
He elaborated on the three core functions of APIC as an “independent platform for business, finance, and trade empowerment”:
1. Web3 Innovation Incubation: As a global expansion base for cutting-edge projects, leveraging the advantages of DID technology to provide startups with full-chain support from technical solutions and compliance consulting to market implementation.
2. Traditional Business Transformation: Building a bridge between Web2 and Web3, assisting traditional enterprises in digital upgrades using blockchain technology to achieve asset on-chain and business model innovation.
3. Global Education and Overseas Empowerment: Relying on collaborative resources with top institutions such as MIT and UCLA Anderson School of Management, as well as Kuala Lumpur’s geographical advantage as a Southeast Asian hub, helping enterprises connect with the China, US, Asia-Pacific, and Middle East markets, and cultivating versatile talents with a global perspective.
Eugene pointed out that although APIC is headquartered in Kuala Lumpur, its vision is global. This trip to Dubai aims to extend APIC’s empowerment network to the Middle East, an active capital center, to promote deep integration of Eastern and Western resources and build a more open and inclusive global business ecosystem.
Accelerating Global Expansion, Co-Building a New Digital Ecosystem
This Dubai exchange event is an important part of the DID Alliance’s globalization strategy. Through joint actions with partners such as Klickl, Techub News, and 1783DAO, DID demonstrated its ecological connectivity within the industry.
With the continuous maturation of DID technology and the gradual release of the strategic functions of the Asia Pacific Innovation Center (APIC), a global empowerment ecosystem covering technical infrastructure, capital operations, education and training, and business implementation is rapidly taking shape. From the launch in Kuala Lumpur to the debut in Dubai, the DID Alliance is steadily advancing its global layout, committed to connecting global value and reshaping the new order of digital business.
