About the Company

TOKEN2049

Global crypto conference series connecting leaders

TOKEN2049 runs a global conference series in Singapore and Dubai that gathers decision-makers in the crypto and Web3 ecosystem to exchange ideas, network, and shape the industry. It brings together entrepreneurs, institutions, industry leaders, investors, builders, and enthusiasts through in-person programs with talks, panels, and networking, complemented by updates via a mailing list. The organization differs from typical events by prioritizing collaboration among a global crypto/Web3 community and serving as a venue for diverse stakeholders to influence the space, not just a trade show. Its goal is to define what’s next in crypto and Web3 by connecting the right people and ideas.
