A more focused way to attend Europe’s Deal Floor for Digital Assets. Meet the right allocators, managers, issuers, infrastructure providers, and market participants in one place, with ticket access designed for the buy side.
If you allocate capital, evaluate managers, assess infrastructure, explore tokenized products, or track where digital asset markets are becoming institutionally investable, the Buy Side Program helps you get more from EBC12.
Worth more than the ticket
1. Preferential ticket access
Approved applicants will be offered a courtesy pass to attend EBC12.
2. Better conversations, faster
Instead of taking scattered calls across weeks or months, you can meet a concentrated cross-section of Europe’s digital asset market in one place.
3. Relevant counterparties in the room
Meet the companies shaping institutional digital assets across asset management, banking, trading, custody, infrastructure, tokenization, compliance, and regulation.
4. Real market signal
EBC12 gives you a direct read on where the market is actually moving: who is allocating, what products are gaining traction, how infrastructure is evolving, and where institutional conviction is strengthening.
5. Efficient use of time
For many buy-side attendees, the real advantage is compression. In two days, you can cover what might otherwise take weeks of outreach, travel, and fragmented meetings.
