The Unchained Summit will debut in India on November 5 and 6, uniting leaders from capital markets, digital assets, and Web3 in Mumbai to discuss the future of finance and technology.
The Unchained Summit is set to make its inaugural appearance in India on November 5 and 6, bringing together a diverse group of investors, financial market participants, digital asset companies, technology leaders, and policymakers in Mumbai. This event marks a significant moment as India’s financial and technology sectors increasingly converge with Web3 innovations.
Hosted by Aeternum, the Mumbai summit will be the third edition of the Unchained Summit, following successful events in Dubai and Vietnam. Organizers emphasize that this two-day gathering will explore the intricate relationship between traditional finance, digital assets, blockchain infrastructure, and emerging technologies.
A central theme of the summit will be India’s rapid ascent in the global cryptocurrency landscape. According to Chainalysis, India ranked first in the 2025 Global Crypto Adoption Index. However, the country’s regulatory approach remains notably cautious compared to other major markets. The summit aims to incorporate international perspectives into discussions surrounding regulation, adoption, and the future trajectory of digital asset markets.
Tokenization and enterprise blockchain are also expected to take center stage during the event. The announcement highlights the Reserve Bank of India’s exploration of asset tokenization through its central bank digital currency sandbox, alongside the National Blockchain Framework, which reflects broader government and enterprise interest in blockchain infrastructure.
Notable speakers at the summit include S.B. Seker, head of APAC at Binance; Ashish Singhal, co-founder of CoinSwitch; Praneeth Srikanti, partner at Ethereal Ventures; Eva Wong, general counsel at Parity Technologies; Prabal Banerjee, co-founder of Avail; and Dilip Chenoy, chairperson of the Bharat Web3 Association. Representatives from Coinbase, Ondo Finance, Base, Sigma Capital, Monarq Asset Management, and Trilegal will also be in attendance.
The first day of the summit will focus on Markets, Finance, and Digital Assets, covering topics such as regulation and policy, trading, tokenization and real-world assets, stablecoins and payments, wealth management, capital markets, custody, and liquidity. The second day will be dedicated to Web3, Infrastructure, and Emerging Technology, with discussions centered on blockchain infrastructure, artificial intelligence, decentralized finance, scaling, interoperability, security, digital trust, and consumer applications.
This event also underscores India’s burgeoning technology talent pool. According to the event organizers, India boasted 21.9 million developers on GitHub in 2025, making it the second-largest developer community on the platform globally, with over 5.2 million developers added that year.
Sharath Kumar, the founder and CEO of Aeternum, stated that the summit is designed to bridge the capital, policy, and technology aspects of India’s digital asset ecosystem while incorporating international viewpoints into the conversation.
As Mumbai serves as the focal point for this gathering, the summit will connect traders, wealth managers, family offices, founders, investors, developers, traditional financial institutions, and Web3 companies.
