VeeCon 2023 Announces Fourth Round Of Speakers: Jessica Alba, Ed Reed, Tim Tebow, Baron Davis, Clon And More

VeeCon is back for a second year and the list of speakers continues to grow ahead of the May 2023 event. Here’s a look at the additional speakers announced Friday by the VeeCon team.

About the Event: VeeCon 2023 will be hosted in the city of Indianapolis, Indiana at multiple locations including the TCU Amphitheater at White River State Park and Lucas Oil Stadium.

VeeCon 2023 follows the success of VeeCon 2022, which was the world’s first NFT-ticketed conference. The event is hosted by Gary Vaynerchuk, aka Gary Vee, and VeeFriends.

The gathering takes place from May 18 through May 20, 2023.

“We’re gonna do it bigger and badder than we did in 2022,” Vaynerchuk said when revealing Indianapolis as the host city.

VeeCon has been called an “unconference” with the mission to build relationships, community and provide education in the Web3 space.

“VeeCon 2023 will be a bigger and bolder event, think Young Davos meets SXSW,” he told Benzinga.
