IVS2026 to establish a CRYPTO ZONE in collaboration with one of Japan’s leading Web3 media outlets, "NADA NEWS".
We are pleased to announce that "IVS2026," one of Japan’s largest startup conferences, will jointly establish a special zone focused on crypto themes such as crypto assets and stablecoins: "IVS2026 CRYPTO ZONE Powered by NADA NEWS," together with N.Avenue Inc. (Head Office: Minato-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Yuki Kamimoto), which operates one of Japan’s leading Web3 media outlets, "NADA NEWS (formerly CoinDesk JAPAN)."
■ Background and Purpose
With recent developments such as crypto asset ETFs, the spread of stablecoins, and the tokenization of RWAs (real-world assets), the Web3 domain is globally shifting from "speculation" to "practical use and financial infrastructure." Japan is no exception to this trend. Alongside legal framework development, the evolution of crypto assets, the launch of yen-denominated stablecoins, and progress toward fairer taxation—long a major challenge—are rapidly improving the domestic business environment. Against this backdrop, by teaming up with NADA NEWS (rebranded from CoinDesk JAPAN at the end of 2025), one of Japan’s largest Web3 media platforms, we will share global trends and communicate Japan’s accelerating momentum within global financial and technological innovation from the IVS2026 CRYPTO ZONE.
■ Main Features of "IVS2026 CRYPTO ZONE Powered by NADA NEWS"
Through the following content, this zone will support the social implementation of blockchain and digital assets.
Crypto-Focused Stage
Special sessions produced by the NADA NEWS editorial team will be held. Inviting experts and top runners from Japan and abroad, these sessions will delve deeply into topics ranging from regulatory trends to the latest technology trends and business models.
Crypto/Web3 Startup Exhibition
Startups from Japan and abroad shaping next-generation finance—across crypto assets, DeFi, payment infrastructure, security, and more—will exhibit booths. This will promote business matching with investors and operating companies.
Networking Opportunities
Leveraging IVS’s strength as a highly energetic community, we will provide networking opportunities where entrepreneurs and investors in the crypto field gather together with new business leaders from companies participating in IVS.
