AUSTIN, Texas, June 9, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Atlas, a global leader in Web 3.0 infrastructure and its sister company Fundamental Labs, a blockchain-focused venture capital firm, convened yesterday for a kickoff event ahead of the main Consensus Conference to discuss opportunities and challenges in the development and growth of Web 3.0.

Another core topic was Web 3.0's environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) impact in the coming years. Speakers highlighted how the Web 3.0 revolution can encourage green energy adoption, foster improved financial, healthcare, and educational outcomes for global populations, and offer better tools for governing communities and societies.
