Global Blockchain Show Set for Riyadh
Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia, is gearing up to host the Global Blockchain Show on June 29 and 30. This exciting event will gather some of the most notable figures in the blockchain, Web3, and the digital assets world.

Following the success of a similar event in Abu Dhabi in December 2025, which attracted many prominent blockchain investors and visionary leaders, the focus now shifts to Riyadh. The Abu Dhabi show set new records for partnerships and achievements within the Web3 community, paving the way for this upcoming event.

Conference Highlights
Riyadh is rapidly evolving into a key hub for blockchain, with 2,463 new blockchain registrations reported last quarter alone. This event offers a unique opportunity for attendees to connect directly with government-supported initiatives that are part of Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 digital strategy.
With nearly half of the expected 10,000 attendees being founders and C-level executives, the event is tailored for meaningful networking with decision-makers.
Additionally, the event features a VC Matchmaking program designed to connect projects with sovereign wealth funds looking for innovative platforms for the “utility era.” It’s a prime opportunity to raise capital in the Middle Eastern market.
