Jeff Horseman got into journalism because he liked to write and stunk at math. He grew up in Vermont and he honed his interviewing skills as a supermarket cashier by asking Bernie Sanders “Paper or plastic?” After graduating from Syracuse University in 1999, Jeff began his journalistic odyssey at The Watertown Daily Times in upstate New York, where he impressed then-U.S. Senate candidate Hillary Clinton so much she called him “John” at the end of an interview. From there, he went to Annapolis, Maryland, where he covered city, county and state government at The Capital newspaper. Today, Jeff writes about anything and everything. Along the way, Jeff has covered wildfires, a tropical storm, 9/11 and the Dec. 2 terror attack in San Bernardino. If you have a question or story idea about politics or the inner workings of government, please let Jeff know. He’ll do his best to answer, even if it involves a little math.
  • This initiative hopes to promote blockchain technology and metaverse applications. 
  • Hub71 at Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM) will serve as the initiative’s home base.

Abu Dhabi’s digital ecosystem, Hub71, has unveiled a new venture named “Hub71+ Digital Assets.” This is with the financial backing of over US$2 billion. Among the Web3-based technologies that this initiative hopes to promote are blockchain technology and metaverse applications. 

Web3 firms will have access to cutting-edge blockchain and virtual asset infrastructure. Thanks to the Hub71+ Digital Assets project, which also promises a forward-thinking regulatory climate.

Furthermore, Hub71 at Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM) will serve as the initiative’s home base. Digital asset exchanges and service providers will join First Abu Dhabi Bank’s research and innovation center FABRIC as an anchor partner of the project to ease the process of identifying, trading, and storing digital assets.

Global Leader in Web Sector

Moreover, Hub71 has announced that it would assist firms in their expansion to Abu Dhabi. And further expansion across the Middle East and worldwide markets as part of its value-creation initiative.

The “unicorn” stage of a Web3 firm is defined as a value of over $1 billion, hence this initiative will also include such enterprises. As part of Abu Dhabi’s larger strategy to position the United Arab Emirates (UAE) as a global leader in the Web3 sector, this programme is being launched to help creative enterprises thrive in the city.

Startups may get funding, develop and sell novel ideas, and operate under the biggest regulated virtual asset jurisdiction in the MENA area by collaborating with ADGM, FAB, FABRIC, and other renowned Web3 enterprises and facilitators. This partnership may help firms expand and adapt to new circumstances.
