Lisbon will host its fourth edition of the NFC summit from June 4 to June 6, and is expected to attract about 5,000 participants to the Pavilhão Carlos Lopes every day.
This year’s event reflects an increasing shift in the Web3 industry, from transactions and guessing to cultural, media and entertainment applications. Organizers positioned the summit as a multidisciplinary gathering, a program designed to attract professionals in the creative industry as well as professionals engaged in blockchain development.
The single pass grants access to eight major events that highlight topics such as digital art, gaming, decentralized platforms, artificial intelligence and online communities.

The NFC Summit (the abbreviation for the Unkillable Conference) begins with a Web3-centric event in 2022. Originally centered on NFTS and digital ownership, it has since expanded to include a wider range of topics related to blockchain technology and digital creativity.
It takes place annually in Lisbon and attracts attendees from Europe and beyond, including technology companies, creative professionals and representatives from the Web3 community. Previous versions focused on art and innovation, with a strong influence from digital creators and platform developers.
NFC Summit is in its fourth year and has evolved into a hybrid form that combines group discussions and industry presentations with exhibitions, performances and community gatherings.
