A World-Class Lineup of Leaders

This year’s speakers include top voices from politics, venture capital, and frontier technology:

Government: Fiona Ma, California State Treasurer, overseeing the $3.5 trillion California economy.

Venture Capital: Tim Draper, iconic Silicon Valley investor, Draper Associates ($1.2B AUM), early backer of Tesla, SpaceX, and Coinbase.

Capital Markets: Ryan Baird, Managing Director at Baird Augustine, with access to a $700B+ capital network.

Industry Pioneers: Abhay Mav, VP of Corporate Development at MoonPay, scaling global crypto infrastructure.

Academia: De Kai, AI pioneer, UNESCO expert, UC professor advancing human–AI collaboration.

Entrepreneurship: Gary Fowler, CEO of GSD Venture Studios, 17-time founder, unicorn creator.

Also present were senior partners from Blumberg Capital, SkyDeck, Founder Institute, and other global institutions — underscoring Silicon Valley’s role as a nexus of technology and capital.

 

MiniDoge as the Exclusive Co-Organizer

Notably, MiniDoge took the stage as the only co-organizer, alongside Draper University, Synexis, and Founders Bay. This marks the first time a Meme × Web3 project has appeared as a co-host of a top-tier Silicon Valley forum.

Born out of France’s MiniLab, MiniDoge has been pioneering the convergence of Meme culture with DeFi, DePIN, AI blockchain, and RWA, building an ecosystem that is “fun and functional.” Its newly launched Mini 1Pro blockchain smartphone is already redefining user experience as a “consume-to-invest” Web3 entry point.

Industry insiders highlight that MiniDoge’s participation signals not only its technological and ecosystem achievements, but also its determination to embed within global innovation and capital networks.

 

A Vision to Bring Web3 to the Mainstream

As part of its Global Tour, MiniDoge is expanding across the U.S., Europe, and Asia. Its roadmap spans both academic and cultural fronts — from collaborations with world-class universities such as Stanford, Oxford, and Cambridge, to high-visibility cultural activations at New York Fashion Week, Miami Art Basel, and flash events in Paris, Milan, and Amsterdam.

With a four-pillar strategy — academic credibility, technology adoption, cultural storytelling, and capital linkage — MiniDoge aims to push Web3 beyond speculation into mainstream adoption, positioning itself as a benchmark for Meme × Web3 innovation.

 

As the Frontier Tech Forum emphasized, “boundaries are being redefined.” Standing alongside global leaders in politics, business, academia, and technology, MiniDoge is not just exploring the future of Meme and blockchain — it is helping to shape how Web3 integrates with the real economy and cultural systems worldwide.
