Thrilld Labs Partners with Singapore Blockchain Week

We’re thrilld to collaborate with Singapore Blockchain Week, taking place from November 13-17 across Singapore and Malaysia. Positioning itself as the first cross-border blockchain event, the week organises multiple events in Johor and Singapore, concluding with the main summit on the 17th at the Furama Riverfront Hotel. With the formalisation of the Johor-Singapore Special Economic Zone (JS-SEZ) on January 7, 2025, and new opportunities for investment, infrastructure, and regional collaboration, Singapore Blockchain Week capitalizes on this cross-border collaboration, bringing together the people and institutions shaping this next phase of Southeast Asia’s digital economy. 

‍

Across the five days, the programme is expected to welcome 5,000 attendees, 70+ speakers, and more than 100 institutional partners, taking a broader approach that merges traditional finance, regulatory frameworks, and Web3 infrastructure. We like the inclusion of a topic on how digital assets are moving into institutional and enterprise settings, from tokenised treasuries, funds, and bonds to stablecoins, CBDCs, and capital market infrastructure. All will be discussed to explore how blockchain can support new financial models and cross-border activity. 

‍

Another important topic is global compliance, especially with policymakers and regulators being involved in this new special economic zone.

As for the speakers, SBW 2026 features voices from across the space. Among the few announced speaker are Justin Sun, Founder of TRON; Matthew Dawson, Co-Founder of Ethereum Institutional, and Albina Gaisina, a Blockchain and Digital Innovation Analyst at the UNDP. 

‍

What makes SBW also interesting is its cross-border format.

The programme begins in South Malaysia on 13th november with the Johor Web3 SEZ immersion, featuring an open house at Manera IIB, a visit to Forest City, AI:Xcelerator and sessions on growth and capital strategies for SMEs and startups. The programme then moves over to Singapore for the remaining four days.

‍

Highlights include: the Tech-Enabled Sports and the Sui Run, a Learnathon and Startup Village, The Inner Circle at NUS and the National Library. The week finally culminates with the main summit on 17th November at Furama RiverFront Hotel, Venus Grand Ballroom, Singapore. The summit will feature three stages covering DeFi-RWA, Open Mic and Booths, and AI x DLT, alongside a VIP Room and the Capital Assembly at VNTR and DarkNight Capital. 

An interesting fact to note! Singapore’s Web3 sector attracted $742 million in investment in 2024, representing 64% of the country’s FinTech funding that year. As for Johor, it is home to 78.6% of Malaysia’s total operational data-centre IT capacity, as for MIDA’s March 2025 report. Certainly a place with a lot of potential at a very apt time, we'd argue.
