Join the Digital Revolution: Co-Create the Meta-Layer

What is the Meta-Layer Initiative?

The Meta-Layer Initiative is a global collaboration to build a connective digital layer—a living infrastructure that bridges isolated technologies, empowers communities, and fosters open innovation. It’s not just a platform—it’s a movement toward a more interoperable and equitable digital future that starts with defining the desirable properties of a Meta-Layer.
