Digital Assets Conference and Awards 2026

17:30 - 19:15 CET | In-Person | Deloitte Auditorium, Luxembourg

05 March 2026

 

Overview  


Welcome to the 4th edition of Deloitte Luxembourg’s Digital Assets Conference (DAC), a place where changemakers and innovators gather to assess, energize, and celebrate Luxembourg’s progress in the field.

DAC 2026 has also featured the 3rd Digital Assets Awards Ceremony, where the most compelling initiatives, entities, and personalities are invited on stage to be recognized for their innovative work in the digital assets space.

The winners of the Digital Assets Awards 2026 were:

  • Franklin Templeton for Initiative of the Year
  • Zodia Custody for Entity of the Year
  • Georges Bock for Personality of the Year 


Topic of the 2026 edition  
 

Convergence: Bridging traditional finance and the digital asset economy 

The conference has focused on a pivotal shift in the digital asset landscape: true convergence. The lines between traditional and decentralized finance are blurring rapidly. Crypto exchanges, custody providers, and digital asset platforms are moving into regulated financial services, while traditional institutions are integrating digital assets across banking, payments, wealth management, and capital markets. 

As regulatory expectations, infrastructure, and institutional demand evolve, this edition will explore how these trends are reshaping competitive dynamics, technology foundations, and pathways to mainstream, compliant adoption. 

Leading professionals, policymakers, and innovators have joined the event to gain strategic insights, actionable learnings, and best practices driving growth, resilience, and competitiveness across Europe’s digital finance ecosystem.
