ICP Roadshow San Francisco
San Francisco is an epicenter for technology and venture capital, making it the perfect place for the Internet Computer Protocol (ICP) to establish its stronghold. With access to top talent, investors, and a thriving Web3 ecosystem, the city offers strategic advantages for ICP’s expansion.
The ICP Roadshow San Francisco (February 10–15, 2025) brought together builders, founders, and industry leaders for a week of groundbreaking discussions, hands-on workshops, and high-impact networking.
Last week's ICP San Fransisco roadshow was a huge success.
