A New Dawn: 
The Onchain Renaissance Begins

The fourth-annual BCVC Founder Summit is back, where founders, visionaries, policymakers, and industry leaders converge to set the agenda for the industry.

This event is an invite-only gathering for founders, CEOs, and leaders in the digital asset, AI, and other domains who come together and discuss the most challenging, existential problems in our space.

Set within the refined surroundings of the historic Harvard Club of New York City, the day will be dedicated to CEO roundtable discussions, formal debates, fireside chats and unparalleled connections.

The 2025 agenda is still confidential and will be shared closer to the event. Stay tuned to see this year's speakers and panelists.
