About the event

Preston Tech Connection: Web3 Is Dead
Preston Tech Connectionis a group centred around an interest in digital technologies. We meet monthly to discuss interesting and topical subjects.

Our July topic is 'Web3 Is Dead. Or Is It?'.

We will explore whether blockchain and crypto tech still have a future beyond hype, and where real use cases are emerging (e.g. in gaming, identity, finance).

Join us this month for a panel discussion that digs into one of the most controversial questions in tech today:

Is Web3 a failed experimentโ€”or just getting started?

With the hype train slowing down and crypto markets cooling off, itโ€™s the perfect time to take a clear-eyed look at where blockchain, crypto, and decentralized tech really stand in 2025. Is there still a future for Web3 beyond coins, speculation, and buzzwords? Or is it time to move on?

Our panel of builders, sceptics, and curious minds will explore:

ยท What Web3 promised vs. what it delivered

ยท Real-world use cases that are actually working (or not)

ยท The future of decentralized identity, finance, and gaming

ยท How developers can make sense of the noise

Expect a relaxed evening with good conversation, open Q&A, and the usual mix of techies, founders, and folks just here to learn.

Whether you're deep in the chain or just chain-curious, youโ€™re welcome!

About Preston Tech Connection

Preston Tech Connection is a group centred around an interest in digital technologies โ€“ our events and meet-ups are a place where tech enthusiasts can come together, exchange ideas and discuss current topics in the industry.

Preston Tech Connection is founded by Tom Crawley from Neon Mountain and Catarina and Brendan King from Society1. We host monthly meet-ups.

Our events cover topics like software, programming, hardware and emerging tech. We have a shared interest in the latest advancements in the digital realm. We host events with a social and collaborative aspect, workshops, guest speaker events, and networking.

We are an inclusive group and open for anyone to attend. You donโ€™t need to work in tech. If you are interested in the topics or just want to come and be part of a friendly community of people exploring the digital and tech world, you are welcome.

Getting there:

Society1 is located on Cross Street, just off Winckley Square (PR1 3LT). It is easily accessible by bus and train.

If you need to drive, public parking is available at Fishergate Shopping Centre or Avenham Public Car Park. The Avenham multi storey car park closes at 8pm, so as this event runs later we advise that you park in the open air one or on the streets around us.

Note: These events might be photographed and this content will be used in future marketing for Society1.
