Founders' Night | Hosted by Pivot Global, Ethereum Foundation, Optimism, Protocol Labs, Altius Labs, AppWorks, Euler and Starknet
Join us for a relaxed evening during TOKEN2049 in Singapore.
Set high above the city with panoramic views of Singapore’s skyline, this private gathering brings together founders, crypto-native fund managers, and Ethereum-aligned contributors for an informal night of high-signal conversations, new connections and good vibes. Come for the drinks and bites, stay for the people you’ll meet. No panels, no stage, just a thoughtful crowd of builders, funds, and ecosystem stewards.
Co-organized by Pivot Global, AppWorks, Protocol Labs, Euler, Optimism, Altius Labs, and Ethereum Foundation’s Founder Success team.
