SmartCon 2024

Mind Network is excited to participate in SmartCon 2024, Chainlink’s annual flagship conference, on October 30–31 at the Kerry Hotel in Hong Kong. This event marks a significant milestone in our collaboration with Chainlink, highlighting our joint development of the FHE Bridge product.

Our partnership has already produced the first FHE-based cross-chain infrastructure using Chainlink’s Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP). This innovative solution enhances security for asset transfers and transactions across traditional finance and Web3 sectors. SmartCon 2024 offers an ideal platform to showcase the potential of this groundbreaking technology.

SmartCon Spotlight Presentation

Leon Li, Head of APAC at Mind Network, will be sharing insights on SmartCon 2024’s main stage. Leon will discuss how FHE technology can revolutionize data privacy and security, exploring hot topics including cross-chain interoperability, artificial intelligence, and the applications of FHE in both traditional and decentralized finance.

In addition to its spotlight presentation, Mind Network will deepen its engagement at SmartCon 2024 by hosting two exclusive side events, further expanding its influence within the Web3 and TradFi sectors.

Chainlink On My Mind: BUILD with FHE

“Chainlink On My Mind: BUILD with FHE” On October 29, Mind Network, in partnership with Chainlink, Animoca Brands, HashKey Capital, Avalanche, Google Cloud, and SAT, will co-host an exclusive side event titled “Chainlink On My Mind: BUILD with FHE.” This event will delve deep into the transformative potential of Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) in the evolving landscape of cross-chain transactions, bridging the gap between Traditional Finance (TradFi) and Web3.

Join us now.

FHE is often hailed as the “Holy Grail” of cryptography, allowing computations to be performed on encrypted data without the need for decryption. Mind Network, at the forefront of this breakthrough technology, is driving innovation in secure decentralized computation, ensuring unprecedented privacy and security for users in the TradFi and Web3 spaces.

By integrating FHE into decentralized networks, Mind Network is shaping the future of secure computation, enabling new levels of privacy, data protection, and security for AI, PoS, and DeFi ecosystems. This side event will be a deep dive into the real-world applications of FHE, featuring top voices from the Web3 and AI sectors.

Wine Party: Vinovation & Web3 Uncorked in Hong Kong

On October 29th, from 8:00 PM to 12:00 AM, Mind Network, together with Tadle, SphereX, and ThirdFi, will host the SmartCon Wine Night.
