About this event
DePIN is moving fast, but the best conversations still happen in person. DePIN Founders Day | 20+ Top Projects brings together founders, operators, builders, and ecosystem participants for a focused afternoon in Singapore built around real discussion, practical insight, and high-signal networking. If you want to meet the people actually building in decentralized physical infrastructure networks, this is the room to be in. Expect a strong concentration of projects, candid exchanges, and the kind of context you only get when the people shipping products are sharing what they’re seeing on the ground. About the Event This is an in-person community and networking meetup designed around the DePIN ecosystem, with 20+ top projects represented. Rather than a broad crypto event trying to cover everything, this gathering is centered on one of the most active and operationally demanding categories in the space: networks that connect tokenized incentives with real-world infrastructure, hardware, coordination, and deployment. The format is built to make it easy to meet the right people. You can expect a mix of structured moments and informal conversation, giving attendees room to discover new projects, compare approaches, and talk through the practical realities of building, scaling, and supporting DePIN initiatives. Because the audience is likely to include both project teams and ecosystem participants, the value here is not just listening passively. It’s about being in a room where partnerships can start, lessons can be shared quickly, and the distance between introduction and meaningful follow-up is much shorter than it would be online. Whether you’re actively building or trying to understand where the category is heading next, the event creates a concentrated setting for learning directly from the people closest to the work. What to Expect The core of the day is connection with 20+ top projects in a live, in-person setting. That means conversations with founders and teams, the chance to hear how different projects are thinking about growth and deployment, and plenty of opportunities to exchange ideas with others following the sector closely. You should expect a social but purposeful atmosphere. This is not just casual mingling for its own sake; it’s a meetup designed for people who want to leave with stronger context, sharper industry perspective, and a better network inside the DePIN space. Likely highlights of the experience include: Founder and project interactions with teams building in DePIN Peer networking with other attendees across community, ecosystem, and operator roles High-signal conversations around market direction, infrastructure coordination, and adoption Discovery of new projects and a clearer view of how different teams are positioned Organic follow-up opportunities for partnerships, collaboration, or continued discussion after the event Because the event begins at 12:00 PM, it also works well as a daytime touchpoint in your Singapore schedule. It’s a useful format if you prefer conversations while people are still fresh, focused, and open to going deeper than a quick evening meetup chat. Why Attend If you care about DePIN, this is a chance to compress months of online lurking, scattered calls, and fragmented updates into a single afternoon. Instead of trying to piece together the landscape from posts and secondhand commentary, you’ll be able to talk directly with people building projects and compare perspectives in real time. For founders, the value is obvious: targeted visibility, peer learning, and access to other serious participants in the category. For ecosystem members, researchers, operators, and curious builders, the advantage is proximity to the teams shaping how this space evolves. Attending can help you: Meet relevant people faster than through cold outreach or online communities alone Get a clearer read on the DePIN landscape by hearing directly from active projects Spot collaboration opportunities across products, communities, and go-to-market efforts Pressure-test your ideas with people who understand the operational realities of this category Build stronger local and regional connections within Singapore’s in-person crypto and builder network There’s also a simple reason to be there: quality concentration. When more than 20 top projects are part of the same event, the odds of useful conversations go up significantly. If you’re selective about where you spend your time, that density matters. Practical Details Date: Tuesday, September 17 Time: 12:00 PM GMT+8 Format: In-person meetup, networking, and community gathering Location: Singapore, around a 5-minute walk from Somerset MRT station The venue’s proximity to Somerset MRT makes it straightforward to reach whether you’re coming from elsewhere in Singapore or fitting the event into a broader day of meetings. Being centrally located also makes it easier to continue conversations before or after the event nearby if you connect with people you want to spend more time with. Because this is an in-person gathering, it’s worth arriving ready to introduce yourself clearly and make the most of the room. If you work in or around DePIN, bring your context, your questions, and a clear sense of what kinds of people you hope to meet. This event is especially well suited to attendees who value direct interaction over passive attendance. If you want a front-row seat to where DePIN is heading, and a realistic chance to meet the people building that future, this is the right way to spend your Tuesday afternoon in Singapore.
