Switzerland's largest institutional digital assets and AI conference, 29-30 September at Kongresshaus Zürich. 3,000+ institutional investors, asset managers, blockchain developers and fintech leaders across three stages and 1,000 sq m of exhibition. Covers tokenisation, institutional DeFi, stablecoins and AI in finance. Organised by CV Labs.
CV Summit is Switzerland's largest institutional conference for digital assets and financial AI, bringing together asset managers, institutional investors, blockchain developers, regulators and fintech leaders for two days at Kongresshaus Zürich. The 2026 edition covers the convergence of tokenisation of capital markets, institutional DeFi, stablecoins, digital custody, AI-powered financial systems and programmable financial infrastructure. CV Labs, the organiser, positions the event at the intersection of traditional finance and digital assets, with a particular emphasis on institutional-grade adoption rather than retail crypto.
Programme themes across three stages and 1,000+ sq m of exhibition space:
The summit targets institutional participants: asset managers, family offices, fund managers, investment banks, fintech companies, blockchain developers, legal and compliance professionals, and regulators. The organisers offer complimentary access for qualified institutional investors and allocators (application required), reflecting the event's goal of concentrating institutional buying power in the room.
René Raeber (CTO Switzerland, Microsoft), Sandy Kaul (Head of Innovation, Franklin Templeton), Cassie Craddock (Managing Director UK & Europe, Ripple), Oscar Flores (CEO, UNBLOCK). Presenting partner: Franklin Templeton.
Institutional finance. The programme, speaker profiles and ticket pricing (standard CHF 699, VIP CHF 1,999, with free access for qualified allocators) all indicate an institutional orientation. Retail crypto speculation and consumer-facing topics are outside the scope of the conference.
CV Summit is deliberately positioned as a finance-first event, not a developer or crypto culture event. The focus is the transformation of financial infrastructure through tokenisation and digital assets, with AI as an accelerator, not an end topic in itself.
