The 2025 Dutch Blockchain Week is right in the vicinity and marks one of Europe’s most anticipated events in blockchain and Web3 spaces. Now, in the 6th edition, Dutch Blockchain Week has become a must-have moment in the calendar of global Crypto and Web3 experts and enthusiasts. Many have been attracted to over 20 well-known side events along the scale of Token2049, hosted by major exchanges such as Bitvavo, Bybit (with Satos), but this week’s spotlight is at the Netherlands Blockchain Week Summit.
This two-day flagship meeting will be held at De Meervaart in Amsterdam from May 21-22 and serve as a central meeting point for partners, policymakers and players in key industry. So, what can you expect from this year’s DBW Summit?
Global speaker lineup from across the industry
The Dutch Blockchain Week Summit goes beyond the typical echo chambers seen at conferences. Instead of sticking to one segment of the market, Dutch Blockchain Week invites speakers from across the industry, including the EU, Tier 1 exchanges and regulatory bodies such as the most well-known funds.
Several sneak peaks of speakers:
Constantijn van oranje – Follow TechLeap Sjuul – AltCryptogenms Brian Gahan – Kraken Eoin Kearns – Moonpay Meyade Curfs – Bybit Mark Jennings – Gemini
With increasing numbers of names being announced soon, the lineup of speakers is becoming one, if not the most dynamic and influential, on the European blockchain conference list.
The range of expertise extends to the daytime interactive breakout sessions of the summit. From 11:55 to 12:55 on the 1st day and 12:20 to 13:20 on the second day, attendees from every corner of the industry can find value in breakout sessions. The breakout session occurs between keynote speeches and fireplace side discussions, resulting in a complete overview provided during the event.
