Future Asset Forum at IBW 2026
The Future Asset Forum, hosted by Hashed Emergent, takes place on the main stage on November 2, 2026, in Mumbai, India, as part of India Blockchain Week 2026. No specific coins are tied to the event; the focus is tokenisation as an ownership layer for emerging asset classes.
What is happening
The Future Asset Forum is a new addition to the India Blockchain Week (IBW) Conference 2026, which runs on November 1-2 at Fairmont Mumbai. The forum is scheduled for the second day, November 2, on the main stage, and is hosted by Hashed Emergent, the venture capital arm of Hashed that also organises the wider conference.
The programme is built around one question: what becomes valuable when intelligence becomes abundant. It brings together AI founders, owners of sports, entertainment and cultural assets, and investors to discuss tokenisation as an ownership layer that connects these emerging asset classes.
The forum is open to all IBW 2026 pass holders, and no separate registration is required. The broader conference, now in its fourth edition, has Binance as Title Sponsor and CoinDCX, CoinSwitch and BINGOLD as Platinum Sponsors. Other sessions on the programme cover blockchain infrastructure, decentralised finance, tokenisation, AI and payments, and fractional ownership for retail investors. IBW 2026 is held ahead of Devcon and anchors a week of blockchain and Web3 activity across Mumbai.
Why it matters
The forum reflects growing interest in applying tokenisation beyond conventional financial assets, toward areas such as sports, entertainment, cultural assets and AI-related businesses. For people following the sector, it is a venue where founders, asset owners and investors discuss how ownership of these assets could be structured on-chain.
The event is a discussion forum rather than a product launch or protocol change, and the sources do not mention any announcements, token events or listings tied to it. Its relevance for holders and traders is mainly informational: it may show how Indian and global participants frame tokenisation and which asset classes they consider worth exploring. The previous IBW edition drew more than 3,500 attendees, and the conference includes speakers from exchanges, regulators and industry firms, so the wider event may generate commentary on the Indian market and its regulatory direction.
