TOKEN2049 – 13-14 March 2019 in Hong Kong

When and where is it on?
TOKEN2049 takes places on the 13-14 March 2019 at the Kerry Hotel in Hong Kong, with 2,000+ attendees, 100+ speakers, 100+ journalists from over 50+ countries.

How many years has it been going?
The inaugural TOKEN2049 kicked off on the 20-21 March 2018 in Hong Kong.

What was the inspiration to start it?
As part of the crypto community, we wanted to encourage further collaboration and development of the space across borders, and to provide a platform to explore and connect with the vast Asian crypto scene.

What exciting things can people look forward to?
As the flagship event of Asia Crypto Week (11-17 Mar 2019), TOKEN2049 will be one of many events taking place throughout the action-packed week. Who’s who from the crypto ecosystem will be in town for an unforgettable week of various independently organized events. At the center, TOKEN2049 will be bigger, better and busier than last year. The conference venue, Kerry Hotel, is situated on the waterfront of the historical Victoria Harbour, providing attendee’s unparalleled scenic views over the renown Hong Kong Island skyline.

Who will be speaking?
TOKEN2049 will host the most prominent pioneers and highly influential and established opinion leaders from the space including Charlie Lee (Litecoin), Saifedean Ammous (The Bitcoin Standard), Bill Barhydt (Abra), Mance Harmon (Hedera Hashgraph), Justin Son (Tron), and many others.

What opportunities are on offer for those attending?
A jam-packed agenda with a stellar lineup, covering the hottest topics in the space await our attendees. TOKEN2049 will also be hosting official drinks and networking events in the evenings after the conference – an ideal platform to meet new people and expand your network.

What tips would you give to people attending to get the most out of it?
We strongly recommend making use of our official networking app, allowing you to engage and schedule meetings with any of the 2,000+ others in attendance.

How can people book tickets / when does it usually sell out?
As 50% of tickets are invite-only, only a limited number of tickets will be for sale this year. Early Bird tickets are currently for sale through our website (www.token2049.com/tickets). We strongly recommend acting early as we are already seeing ticket purchases building up and were completely sold out last year ahead of the conference.

Anything else you’d like to add / we should have asked?
We look forward to once again welcoming the global crypto ecosystem to Hong Kong on the 13-14 March 2019 for a truly special week in the heart of the Orient
