EMERGING ERA &
WEB3
Web 3 and emerging technologies hold immense potential in empowering women and fostering gender equality. Web 3, also known as the decentralized web, aims to create a more inclusive community experience. Through the integration of blockchain technology, smart contracts, and decentralized applications (dApps), Web 3 enables greater control over personal data and privacy, ensuring women have agency over their online presence.
Moreover, emerging technologies like artificial intelligence (AI), virtual reality (VR), and others are paving the way for innovative solutions in various sectors, such as healthcare, education, and finance.
These technologies have the capacity to address longstanding gender disparities by providing access to healthcare services, educational resources, and financial tools to women worldwide. By leveraging Web 3 and emerging technologies, we can foster a more equitable digital landscape where women can thrive and actively participate in shaping the future.

Asal
Alizade
Co-Founder at
Blocklogica
I started my journey in my home country when I was 18 in a cultural Middle Eastern country where reaching independence was my main motive. But a chain of different incidents made me immigrate successfully and be the co-founder of a cutting edge blockchain company in the age of 24. I still have a long way ahead but I just want to let other girls know that we sometimes underestimate ourselves and especially in my field which is tech-related I see so many girls that don’t enter just because of fear, which shouldn’t happen.
