Digital Assets Forum London 2027

Digital Assets Forum London 2027 is the fourth edition of the Digital Assets Forum, a conference for the institutional side of crypto run by the team behind the European Blockchain Convention. The same organiser holds EBC in Barcelona and further DAF editions in New York and Abu Dhabi. The London forum is set for 1 and 2 February 2027. The official site says this edition moves to a larger venue but has not named it yet. The audience is institutional rather than retail. The organiser is aiming at banks, asset managers, allocators on both the LP and GP side, family offices, wealth managers and other institutional investors, and says more of them will attend than at earlier editions. Confirmed speakers so far include Sasha Mills of the Bank of England, Lee McNabb of NatWest, Sabih Behzad of Deutsche Bank and Darko Hajdukovic of LSEG, along with people from HSBC, BBVA, State Street, Revolut Digital Assets Europe and the EBA. The format grows from one day to two. Next to the stage panels and an exhibition floor that the organiser expects to be bigger, the forum adds an area for one-to-one meetings booked ahead through the attendee list, closed-door roundtables between peers and a press room where journalists can talk to speakers in private. A VIP night opens the programme. A detailed 2027 agenda has not been published; the agenda page on the site still carries the 2026 label. Three pass types are listed, each with early bird, regular and late bird prices quoted before 20% VAT. The General Pass runs from £699 to £1,399 and covers all stages, lunch, the expo hall, a networking app and drinks. The VIP Pass, £1,199 to £2,199, adds the VIP night and the speaker lounge. The President Pass, £2,999 to £9,999, adds the attendee list without personal data and three one-to-one meetings. When checked, all three were marked sold out, so availability should be confirmed with the organiser. Crypto payment is offered through a separate Oveit checkout. For affiliates and media buyers the fit is indirect. This is a room of banks, custodians and fund allocators, not acquisition teams, and the 2026 sponsors included Bitwise, Zodia Custody, Cardano, Solana Foundation and Bybit. It suits crypto and finance publishers who cover institutional adoption, and B2B agencies that sell to fintech and digital asset firms.
