AB DAO and the AB Charity Foundation have joined forces to build a trustworthy infrastructure and promote global philanthropic transformation. The two entities co-hosted the inaugural "Tech-Driven Philanthropy Closed-Door Forum" in Dublin, Ireland, marking a significant step in their mission to leverage technology for the public good.

The forum was chaired by Mr. Bertie Ahern, Chairman of the AB Charity Foundation, former Prime Minister of Ireland, and of the European Council. In his keynote speech, Mr. Ahern highlighted the importance of establishing trustworthy systems for public good in the digital age, emphasizing the role of technology in reshaping the philanthropic landscape.

Distinguished guests at the forum included H.E. Olusegun Obasanjo, of Nigeria and former Chairperson of the African Union, and Mr. Malcolm Byrne, Irish Member of Parliament and Chairman of the Committee on Artificial Intelligence. Participants explored how emerging technologies like blockchain and AI can empower global well-being and enhance transparency in philanthropy.

Mr. Anthony Tsang, representing the AB public blockchain, presented the latest technological breakthroughs, including the high-performance mainnet, the AB Connect cross-chain protocol, and the Universal Transfer Protocol, which enables gas-free transactions. His presentation outlined AB DAO's long-term vision to build a globally compliant infrastructure for philanthropy powered by decentralized technology.

Key proposals from the forum will be consolidated by the AB Charity Foundation and submitted to the United Nations and global partner networks. This effort aims to continue driving "technology for good" in real-world initiatives, furthering the joint mission of AB DAO and the AB Charity Foundation to promote global philanthropic transformation.

The AB Charity Foundation, a legally registered entity in Ireland with full EU legal status, is supported by AB DAO’s technology and funding. The Foundation is committed to building transparent, traceable global philanthropic infrastructure using blockchain and AI, aligning with the vision of AB DAO to create a trustworthy and technologically advanced framework for philanthropy.
