European Blockchain Convention

More than 300 speakers, including top executives from Bitpanda, CoinFund, Galaxy, KKR, OKX, Banco Santander, BBVA, Algorand, Bullish, J.P. Morgan, BNP Paribas, and Bitwise Asset Management, will take the stage to share insights and drive the conversation forward.

This year’s agenda will spotlight the most relevant trends in the space, including tokenization of funds and securities, stablecoins, AI agents, institutional demand and ETFs, modern L1s and L2s, DePIN, restaking, user-first Web3 design, and Bitcoin as a treasury reserve.

One of this year’s standout innovations is the launch of Europe’s largest meetings program for the crypto industry, a first-of-its-kind initiative designed to maximize ROI for every attendee. With over 10,000 pre-scheduled 1:1 meetings expected, this new feature will set a new standard in the industry.

For the third time, EBC will host its flagship Start-up Battle, the largest blockchain start-up competition of its kind in Europe, where the 50 most promising European blockchain start-ups will pitch their ideas to a live audience.

At the top of the side event list, there will be a Hackathon where 200+ hackers, 30+ mentors and 20 teams are expected to participate in a 48-hour hackathon.

This year, EBC offers more than just an event, but rather a full experience. From a sunset beach party and a morning beach run to a curated wine tasting and a one-star Michelin tour, attendees will enjoy the best of Barcelona’s vibrant lifestyle.

The event also coincides with the Sitges Film Festival, the Salón Náutico boat show, which showcases boats, yachts, and maritime experiences, and the CSIO Barcelona, renowned as the world’s most prestigious equestrian competition.
