Proof of AI: Builder and Influencer Night | KBW 2026
Join Kite AI in Seoul for Proof of AI: Builder and Influencer Night, bringing together the AI and payments communities during Korea Blockchain Week 2026.
As AI agents move from answering questions to taking action, payments become an essential part of the conversation. How will agents pay for services, transact securely, and operate across digital economies? We’re bringing together people building AI applications and the payment infrastructure that can support them.
Meet AI builders, founders, researchers, investors, creators, and teams working on agentic payments, stablecoins, wallets, and financial infrastructure. Whether you’re developing an AI product, enabling payments, or exploring where the two connect, join us to exchange ideas, discover practical use cases, and meet potential collaborators.
The evening will feature opening remarks, three keynotes, a panel discussion, lucky draws, and time to connect with teams from Korea, across APAC, and beyond.
