![Web 3 and More Surprises · BV European Marketing Podcast · S03 E09](https://blog.bvirtual.com/hs-fs/hubfs/S03%20E07-1.jpg?width=650&name=S03%20E07-1.jpg)  
\_  
Web 3, robots, the Metaverse, Tesla, Time Travel & more: All in Episode 35!

In this final episode of Season 3,   
we interview Edgar Griñant: Developer,  
Data Analyst and our Chief Innovation  
Officer.

*We highlight the evolution of technologies  
most people aren’t yet aware of.*

*We focus on "Web3", the rise of cryptocurrencies  
and the new blockchain-based privacy, among other things.*

* Perhaps even a robot, or two!*

*And since it's almost Christmas,  
be prepared as well for the virtual scent  
of holiday pastries and a touch   
of holiday cheer ;-)*

**Listen right here, and scroll** **down to consult  
additional resources   
in this episode's Programme Notes.**

---

*"Web 3 is not a substitute, but rather  
a complement to the Internet  
we know and use today.*

*It will enable the use of technologies  
like decentralised apps, smart contracts,  
blockchain and cryptocurrencies,  
directly from the browser."

Edgar Griñant*
