We’re thrilld to collaborate once again with Global Blockchain Show 2026, this time taking place at Malfa Hall, Riyadh in Saudi Arabia on February 9-10, 2026. The two-day event gathers leading Web3 professional and others building the decentralized future. Topics span a wide range in blockchain, crypto, DeFi, and very the intersection of real-world applicability, economics, and emerging technologies. This is the fourth time Thrilld Labs partners with GBS.
Global Blockchain Show also hosts a twin edition on December 10-11, 2025 in Abu Dhabi, reinforcing its role as a global connector in the Web3 ecosystem. The events are organized by VAP Group, a leading blockchain, AI, and Web3 consulting firm with footprints in the UAE, UK, India, and Hong Kong, as well as powering brands like Times of AI and Staffing Ninja.
The 2026 Riyadh agenda is already pretty packed with discussions that shall concern blockchain’s role in the economy, governance, and future tech trends.
Attendees can expect the following:
- 10,000+ participants, 200+ exhibitors, and 300+ media channels'
- 250+ speakers, including Yat Siu (Animoca Brands), Dr. Marwan Alzarouni (Dubai Blockchain Center), Sébastien Borget (The Sandbox), and many others;
- A full program of keynotes, panels, fireside chats, and spotlights on all things Web3 (find the full agenda here);
- A Startup Zone where early-stage startups pitch their ideas to investors of the global blockchain community;
- And, of course, networking opportunities with many professionals across the industry.
At the exhibition, there is no formal expo area. Instead, attendees can meet companies in a rave environment, network, and talk business. Of equal value yet more substantially, there are eight track programs spotlighting the most important verticals of Web3, and over 100s if not 1000s of c-suite attendees expected.
The Startup Zone is a large-scale community connecting startups to top VCs, angel investors, and sovereign wealth funds. It offers the chance to watch and participate in thrilling pitch competitions and matchmaking for new growth, and funding. Startups range from pre-seed to Series A, and across varied AI & Web3 ecosystems in the region. To apply to pitch, contact the organisers through their website.
Finally yet interestingly, February’s edition of GBS runs at the same time as the Global AI Show and Global Games Show. For those interested in exploring all three conferences, they can find a one ticket for three shows on the GBS website. Although even for those attending only GBS, the timing promises a large crowd and connections converging across all three events.
We are thrilld to partner with the Global Blockchain Show and, thanks to the partnership, we’re happy to offer two complimentary tickets. To enter the draw, send us an email at info@thrilldlabs.io with “GBS” in the subject line. We will pick the winners by the end of December through a transparent process.
