PANews reported on April 8th that MEET48 has officially become a Diamond Sponsor of the Hong Kong Web3 Festival. This year's Hong Kong Web3 Festival, co-organized by Wanxiang Blockchain Labs and HashKey Group, will be held from April 20th to 23rd at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre (HKCEC). Since 2023, it has become Asia's leading crypto industry event, attracting over 100,000 participants and 350 exhibitors.

As the world's first idol fan economy ecosystem with Web3 as its underlying architecture and deep integration of AI and UGC, MEET48 is building a platform focused on virtual idols and AI-Web5 entertainment.
