Digital Assets Association Singapore Unveils Digital Assets Summit, Set for 2025
Singapore is set to lead the digital asset revolution in Asia, as the city-state gears up for the Digital Assets Summit 2025. Scheduled to take place on September 30, 2025, at CHIJMES Singapore, the summit aims to bridge the gap between blockchain technology and traditional finance.
The event, organised by the Digital Assets Association (DAA) Singapore, a non-profit association, will bring together industry leaders from various sectors and public-sector agencies. Keynote speakers and panel discussions will feature leading projects, financial institutions, and legal professionals, including US SEC Commissioner Hester Pierce, Monetary Authority of Singapore, OKX, DBS Bank, Hedera, NTUC, Drew & Napier LLC, and more.
The speaker lineup includes Alan Lim, Head of Financial Infrastructure & Artificial Intelligence Office at MAS, Gracie Lin, CEO of OKX, Patrick Yeo, Head of Crypto at DBS, Tin Pei Ling, Co-President of MetaComp, and Jag Foo, Partner at Safeheron.
The summit will delve into trending topics in digital asset adoption, such as the fundamentals and opportunities of RWA tokenization, navigating global regulatory changes, case studies on successful RWA implementations, and the future of DeFi and tokenized finance.
Asian jurisdictions, including Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore, and South Korea, are at the forefront of pilot programs for tokenized funds, bonds, and structured products in the digital asset revolution. Singapore, in particular, is poised to lead APAC's digital asset revolution through the convergence between digital assets and traditional finance ecosystems.
Mr. Danny Chong, Co-Chairman of DAA, stated that the convergence of traditional finance and digital assets marks a defining chapter in the evolution of global finance. He emphasised the need for constant updates on innovative applications and adaptation to new technologies to keep up with the rapid expansion of digital assets.
Mr. Chia Hock Lai, Co-Chairman of DAA, also highlighted the importance of education and standards in catalysing adoption across multiple industries in Singapore. He expressed his excitement about the opportunities the Digital Assets Summit 2025 presents for the city-state to take a leading role in the digital asset revolution.
While no specific details about which government agencies will participate in the summit are available, Singapore's strong governmental support and first-mover advantage in the digital asset sector have attracted a significant influx of talent and capital. The summit is expected to be a platform for insightful discussions, networking opportunities, and the sharing of best practices in the digital asset industry.
Meanwhile, Hong Kong is reportedly poised to benefit from Singapore's 'crypto crackdown', as some digital asset companies are reportedly moving their operations to the city. The Digital Assets Summit 2025 promises to be an exciting event that will shape the future of finance in Singapore and the broader APAC region.
