Bangkok Convergence 2026
Where Digital Assets Meet Traditional Finance
A private gathering of the leaders shaping where digital assets and traditional finance meet, the evening before AM2026 opens in Bangkok.
Bangkok Convergence is not a conference. It is a curated table of approximately 50 leaders, held ahead of the 2026 IMF-World Bank Group Annual Meetings.
Who's in the room:
Government and policy leaders
Traditional finance and institutional capital
Digital asset and technology leaders
It has the reach of an industry gathering and the trust of a private table. Attendance becomes relationships. Relationships become collaboration.
