Please note that these are chronological, and not in order of preference. They are all good events, depending on what you’re looking for.

📍5–7 September, San Francisco

TechCrunch Disrupt SF

With a lineup of some prominent players in the Tech scene (including Brian Armstrong, ashton kutcher, Joseph Lubin and others) this event is likely to bring in a good crowd and showcase new technology and great ideas.

If you are unable to attend TechCrunch Disrupt in San Francisco, check out their event in Berlin.

📍5–11 September, Berlin

Berlin Blockchain Week

Blockchain weeks are usually a good time to visit cities, because there are plenty events to attend within a week. We chose Blockchain Week in Berlin due to the quality of their smaller events, and Berlin’s vibrant startup scene. These smaller events are guaranteed to give you some serious food for thought. Definitely attend this one if your interests lie with the technical side of blockchain.

📍13–14 September, Boston

Token Fest

We attended TokenFest in San Francisco (March 2018) and were pleasantly surprised. The quality of the talks, the line up — not only the speakers but startups as well — and overall organization definitely make this a Top Ten event. We have no doubt that the “East Coast” edition will be even better.

📍26 September, London

Blockchain Live

Blockchain Live is shaping up to be a great networking event. It has more than 80 speakers confirmed, with prominent names like Eva Kaili, Nick Szabo, Daniel Larimer and Galia Benartzi among others. Whether you have an interest in Govtech, Energy, Fintech, Crypto or you just want to see leaders in the blockchain space, this event is set to deliver.

📍3–5 October, Malta

Delta Summit

Malta has been getting a lot of traction lately as a blockchain-friendly environment. If that is of interest to you, or want to know more about how the Maltese government has been addressing blockchain challenges, this is a must-go event. If, for some reason, you cannot attend this one, check out Malta Blockchain Summit.

📍21–24 October, Las Vegas

Money 20/20

Money 20/20 is slowly coming into its own, becoming a major player in the blockchain event scene. First in line is their event in Las Vegas where you can expect speakers from Visa, Ripple, CoinList, Coinbase and more. They will also give out 100 tickets to up-and-coming startups (plus other benefits). Special props to Money 20/20 for their Rise UP initiative, empowering women in leadership. You can also attend Money 20/20 in China this November.

If investments are of interest to you, also check out Consensus: Invest 2018.

📍28–29 October, Zurich

Crypto Summit 2018

While not much information has been released yet, with past speakers like William Mougayar, Kathleen Breitman and Jamie Burke, and organised by Smart Valor, Crypto Summit is definitely an event we are keeping our eye on and worth checking out.

📍29 October to 2 November, Prague

Devcon IV

At Devcon you can find all things ethereum, all the way. This is one of the most anticipated events of the year and you were lucky if you were able to score the tickets (wave 2 sold out in less than a minute). But even if you are not able to attend the event itself there will no doubt be some great side events. You’ll be able to make connections outside of the event itself and of course, you’ll have the beautiful city of Prague to enjoy.

📍26–27 November, Bangkok

Beyond Blocks Summit

This one is a bit of a wild card since we haven’t heard much about it. It’s part of the Beyond Block series and we’re in the dark about what it will deliver. Still, the line-up from previous events leaves us hopeful. It is also good to see other big players (aside from Ethereum and Bitcoin) being highlighted, which is what Beyond Blocks has done before.

Bonus: it’s one of the cheaper events on our list.

📍29–30 November, Singapore

Blockshow Asia

This is the second year for BlockShow, an internationally recognisable event powered by Cointelegraph. Currently held in USA, it is moving to Asia in November. If you are from, or have any interest in blockchain happenings in Asia, this is a must-go event. Although the event is set for November, they already have some prominent speakers lined up.

P.S. Our partner Etherisc won the startup competition “BlockShow Oscar” at BlockShow Europe 2017.
