Crypto Expo Asia has announced several new headline speakers and a partnership with ACCESS Blockchain Association Malaysia as the event bolsters its collaboration with leading industry groups across the region.

This dovetails Crypto Expo Asia’s earlier collaborations with the Asia Blockchain Association (ABA), Asia Blockchain Gaming Alliance (ABGA), Asosiasi Blockchain Indonesia (ABI), Singapore Fintech Association (SFA), and the Singapore University of Social Sciences Node for Inclusive FinTech Blockchain Security Alliance (SUSS NiFT).

This second edition of Crypto Expo Asia also unveiled its latest line-up of headline speakers, which include Henryk Abucewicz Tan, head of institutional sales at Coinhako; Sebastian Zilliacus, managing director of EMURGO Media, the official commercial arm and a founding entity of the Cardano blockchain; Karthik Rajeswaran, VP of product at Headquarters (HQ.xyz), a Web3 finance operations toolkit; Julian Kwan, co-founder and CEO of tokenization platform InvestaX, and automated market maker for tokenized assets IX Swap; Anuj Shankar, CEO of Swiss-operated institutional-grade staking service provider Luganodes; Timothy Tan, head of sales and marketing at Cactus Custody, the institutional custody arm of the leading digital assets financial services ecosystem Matrixport; and Ben Zhang, co-founder and COO of blockchain infrastructure and service provider NodeReal.

“Institutional interest in blockchain and Web3 technology remains at a high despite fears of a prolonged crypto winter. As the entire industry approaches maturity, as evidenced by increased regulatory oversight, now is the time for public and private sector stakeholders to work more closely together than ever before," Michael Xuan, director of Crypto Expo Asia, said.

“South and Southeast Asia have some of the world’s highest crypto adoption rates. It will come as no surprise that Crypto Expo Asia is seeing record interest from industry associations as well as global and regional players, keen to further discourse around hot-button issues including artificial intelligence, CBDCs, Web3 regulation, Metaverse adoption, and blockchain gaming,” he added.

2023 also marks the debut of the Web3 Expo Asia Summit, a sub-event under the auspices of Crypto Expo Asia dedicated to panel sessions around NFTs and the Metaverse.
