"Among conferences, Blockshow is like the Cirque du Soleil of the circus - we stand out from the competitors. We are not your typical conference: We remove standard, official stuff from it and focus on a casual atmosphere where community feels like home and where people can network and sign contracts. We disregard the word 'official,' and like to replace it with 'informal.' We are a show for blockchain business representatives to spend their time efficiently."
