Met Ams: a fresh new metaverse conference looking to diversify the Web3 world

The new metaverse conference Met Ams took place last week, acting as a platform to make the digital world more accessible to a wider audience. The concept for the event transpired in December 2021, and was formulated over six months by co-founders Anne Sophie Erbé, Peter Meere, Edmund Howard and Rik Woldring, ultimately selling out and preparing to welcome 1,500 international visitors over the course of four days. The idea initially stemmed from an interest in developing a digital art festival, something that was missing for the younger generation in Europe, Erbé said in conversation with FashionUnited. She added: “We wanted to have a conference that focused a lot on art and creativity, approaching the space from a cultural point of view.”
