The second edition of ETH Sofia positioned the Balkans as one of Europe’s most dynamic intersections of academic research and blockchain innovation. As Sofia once again turned into a meeting point for builders, thinkers, and innovators, ETH Sofia 2025 confirmed why the Balkans are becoming one of Europe’s most promising Web3 regions. From founders, academics, and regulators to sponsors and developers, the event reflected a shared ambition: to educate, connect, and drive the next wave of blockchain progress. Having hosted both the first and second editions of ETH Sofia, I’ve had the chance to watch the event rise from a bold local experiment into a regional benchmark for collaboration between the blockchain industry, academia, and public institutions
