Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

The London Blockchain Conference, running from May 21-23 at London ExCeL, anticipates thousands of enterprise and government executives to walk through its doors and into exclusive side-events put on by its partners. 

Revealed to the public on May 13, Gate2Chain announced their VIP side event in Ibiza taking place May 25-26, the weekend after the London Blockchain Conference. The event will include a VIP dinner and Flower Power Party at Pacha on May 25 followed by a “Networking Sail” to Formentera on May 26.

Tickets to the event are extremely limited to provide an intimate atmosphere and prime networking conditions for everyone, with packages available for singles, couples, corporates and “Ibiza VIPs.”

As a special bonus, there are direct flights available to Ibiza from London City Airport, a mere 15 minute DLR ride from London ExCeL.

To find out more about this exclusive opportunity for LBC delegates, CoinGeek spoke with Gate2Chain’s CEO Bart Olivares who will also be speaking and exhibiting at London Blockchain Conference.

Becky Liggero: Thank you so much for joining me, Bart. Can you tell us why you decided to put together this glamorous LBC side event in Ibiza?

Bart Olivares: Ibiza is the perfect place as it is a global showcase; people from all over the world visit the island, which combines beauty, inspiration, and innovation. It also has world-famous icons like Pacha, where the legendary Flower Power party is celebrated, a unique experience globally. In short, it is an unbeatable setting to demonstrate new technologies in a unique environment. Moreover, many of the G2C team have grown up on these islands, so we feel at home.

Becky Liggero: Such a beautiful part of the world, lucky you! For those who are not familiar with Ibiza’s amazing nightlife, what is special about Pacha’s Flower Power Party?

Bart Olivares: The Flower Power party at Pacha Ibiza is one of the most distinctive and colorful events in the world of nightlife. The concept of the Flower Power party is to recreate the vibes of the ’60s and ’70s, with attendees often dressed in period-appropriate attire like bell-bottoms, tie-dye shirts, and flower crowns. The decoration of the venue follows suit, with psychedelic and floral motifs. Musically, the event features classic hits from the ’60s and ’70s, spanning rock, pop, and disco, diverging from the electronic music typically associated with Ibiza’s clubs. The event not only attracts long-time fans of the era but also younger generations curious about the music and culture of that time.

Becky Liggero: Ah, sounds like a great time. So how will your guests experience innovative G2C technology at Pacha?

Bart Olivares: In this event, we have tokenized the traditional travel package. Now revamped into a token that provides access to dinner and a party at Pacha, a hotel stay, and a boat journey from Ibiza to the island of Formentera. Essentially, it is a token that encapsulates real-world value, in this case, an experience that will be forever recorded on the blockchain. This token can be redeemed at establishments to consume the services, and it also includes unique audiovisual memorabilia that attendees will receive.

Tickets are available on our own marketplace Minta.com

Becky Liggero: What a creative way to allow for people to touch and feel some of the innovation within the blockchain space- well done. To further entice delegates to join you, what is the island of Formentera known for?

Bart Olivares: Formentera is known for its stunning natural beauty and serene atmosphere, making it a popular destination for creators seeking tranquillity and inspiration away from bustling city life. You’ve never seen waters of that color before.

Becky Liggero: This experience sounds perfect for networking, a beautiful mix of party and chill. So besides having a lot of fun, what can attendees expect to take away from this time in Ibiza? What will they discuss and learn?

Bart Olivares: Unwind from the conference’s intensity in an environment that promotes both relaxation and intellectual engagement. The Gate2Chain weekend in Ibiza offers a unique opportunity to transform conference momentum into actionable insights and valuable connections. This event is specifically crafted for blockchain builders, investors, entrepreneurs, and enthusiasts aiming to advance their knowledge and connections within the blockchain space. Always make sure to have fun—it’s crucial for maintaining your motivation over the long run.

Becky Liggero: Well I’m sold Bart, this all sounds like a once in a lifetime experience to me. Thank you for sharing the details with CoinGeek and I cannot wait to see you next week!
