HAPPY birthday to us, happy birthday to us, happy birthday The Digital Commonwealth, happy birthday to us!
It's been an entire year since the words "Then let's call it The Digital Commonwealth" were spoken, and a new media and events platform was created for the Web3, AI, blockchain, digital assets and FinTech industries.
And what a year it has been.
Over the last 12 months, The Digital Commonwealth has produced almost 600 articles, grown huge networking communities, connected individuals and companies, and assisted a swathe of start-ups in breaking onto the scene.
But that's not all. We've also delivered a stunning series of events which began with the official launch party of The Digital Commonwealth in January at the famous Smith and Wollensky.
We then launched the Mansion House Summit Series at the most prestigious venue in the City of London - the official residence of The Lord Mayor of The City of London - which saw 1,300 guests, 240 speakers and 561 companies attend five summits.
"The Digital Commonwealth began as a vision for ensuring the UK's digital minds had a meeting place - a centre point for the great thinkers and doers of this rapidly-advancing industry to innovate, collaborate and educate," said founder and CEO James Bowater.
"And there's no better venue to provide that place than the greatest and most original coffee house of Europe - Mansion House, where I'm delighted to announce we shall be continuing the summit series for 2025.
"On this day 12 months ago, we dared to dream. And here we are now, sharing The Digital Commonwealth as a reality."
The 2024 Mansion House Summit Series reached a spectacular climax on November 4 with an exciting new schedule format that will be carried into the new year.
With a remarkable 41% of companies returning to each occasion at Mansion House, the combined reach of the summits approached a staggering 800,000 via our communities on Twitter (X) and LinkedIn.
Thursday March 6, Thursday July 3, and Wednesday November 5 2025 have been set as the dates of 2025's events.
Furthermore, the March 6 summit will also incorporate a rescheduled The Digital Commonwealth Annual Industry Awards in the evening.
