Proof of Talk, widely known as the Davos of Web3, will hold its 2026 edition at the Louvre Palace in Paris on June 2–3. The gathering is capped at 2,500 attendees and sold out in both 2024 and 2025.
Confirmed speakers include Jenny Johnson (CEO, Franklin Templeton), Tom Zschach (CIO, Swift), and Emma Landriault (JPM Coin Global Executive Director, JP Morgan). More than 120 speakers, 95% at CEO or Founder level, represent a combined $18 trillion in assets under management.
The event will again host Proof of Pitch, a startup competition for early-stage founders. Live pitches will be made to leading venture investors from firms like Arrington Capital and Dragonfly.
A dedicated StableDay program on June 3 will focus on stablecoins, payments, and tokenization. Sessions are designed for institutions actively building these systems.
Running across both days, a Bittensor Track will explore decentralized AI and blockchain infrastructure. A separate Canton Track will feature institutions building financial market infrastructures.
Two private dinners are signature features of the event. The investor dinner brings together fund managers and allocators for off-the-record discussions.
The speaker & VIP dinner creates a rare setting for senior executives, founders, and policymakers. At most conferences, dinners are a side event. At Proof of Talk, they are often where the most important conversations happen.
