What to expect at CONF3RENCE 2026
Finance Loop is an official media partner of CONF3RENCE 2026. The conference takes place on 15 and 16 September 2026 at Kokerei Hansa in Dortmund, and admission for both days is free.
CONF3RENCE brings emerging technology and the traditional economy into the same room. The previous two editions drew more than 4,000 attendees from over 70 countries to Dortmund, and the organizers dropped the ticket price to zero for 2026 to widen that audience further.
Kokerei Hansa is a former coking plant and an industrial heritage site.
The agenda covers the subjects discussed by the Finance Loop network, from tokenization and stablecoins to institutional adoption of AI.
The program runs across four core topic areas:
- AI and enterprise adoption, including what production deployments look like inside large organizations
- Tokenization and real-world assets, from issuance to secondary markets
- Stablecoins and digital payments, covering settlement, regulation and corporate use
- Institutional finance and blockchain infrastructure, where banks and market infrastructure meet on-chain systems
The format spans a main stage, a dedicated DeepTech stage, masterclasses, an exhibition floor and networking across the campus. Speakers in past editions came from PwC, IBM and comparable institutions, and the organizers put the share of C-level attendees at 82 percent.
CONF3RENCE 2026 also runs inside the Festival of Arts, Tech & Taste (FATT), together with Next Level and #diwodo. That means a culinary program, installations, a Ferris wheel and live formats on the same site once the business program ends for the day.
