The travelling COO gives her verdict on conferences internationally and there are some gaps - in gender, innovation and excitement
The article discusses the author's experiences and observations from attending various technology conferences internationally. The author, who is the COO of a company, notes a lack of new technology, particularly in the area of web3 content, at these events. The conferences are criticized for being too basic and predominantly featuring male speakers.
