The event will feature a series of fireside chats with prominent industry leaders like Justin Kan, Kevin Chou, Dan Morehead, Mike Novogratz, Chris Larsen, and Michael Arrington.
Of course, the event isn’t all business. The team behind TRON, a blockchain operating system, is throwing an invite-only after-party at a San Francisco speakeasy. Craft cocktails, a whiskey tasting station, and a great collection of guests will all be present. What’s more, a TRON taco truck will be giving away free meals to conference attendees on October 31st and November 1st.
Taken together, the guest list and the planned activities are indicative of the general ethos of San Francisco Blockchain Week.

Therefore, Fintech World Forum, taking place in London on November 18th and 19th, is packed with presenters.

In total, 25 speakers will cover some of the most important issues facing today’s crypto investors, including crypto as payments, Bitcoin and barriers to finance, and the future of finance.
Fintech World Forum will be one of the last big blockchain and crypto conferences to take place in 2019. So far, it’s been an incredible year for cryptocurrencies, and these events are both an opportunity to celebrate that progress and to build the connections that ensure its proliferation well into the future.
Whether you’re partying at a speakeasy or participating in a panel discussion, there will be something for everyone at all these events.
