Full Speed Ahead: Web3 Investor Day 2025 Accelerates in Chicago – Paul Hsu and Rizza Torres, Decasonic; Brian Walls, Bridge Alternatives
A Moment of Acceleration
We’re excited once again to bring together the top asset allocators, trading firms, venture investors, and founders to our Web3 Investor Day. In our fourth year of presenting this conference, we are optimistic of the accelerating adoption of Web3. This year’s theme, Full Speed Ahead, reflects the growing alignment of macro, markets and adoption to transform Web3 innovation.
Once again, we gather in the beauty of a Chicago summer. On July 24, 2025, Chicago will host the 4th Annual Web3 Investor Day in the iconic Willis Tower, co-presented by Bridge Alternatives Digital, Decasonic, Sterling Bay, VanEck, and New Form Capital. New this year, we have aligned our schedule with TechChicago Week, where the broader international community congregates around innovation and technology in the great midwest city. Chicago is a crossroads of where innovation meets industry, where markets meet money and where adoption accelerates to the mainstream. The strength of Web3 Investor Day lies in its roots both in the people who attend and the city that hosts it. With deep ties to finance, logistics, manufacturing, and innovation, Chicago is quickly becoming a nexus for Web3 transformation.
Thanks to our partners at World Business Chicago, Sterling Bay, and TechChicago Week, we’re proud to showcase how public-private partnerships, global investment, and a vibrant founder ecosystem make Chicago a launchpad for decentralized, AI-powered infrastructure.
Building on the success of last year, which brought together over 250 attendees, including 150 VIP guests and more than 30 speakers from diverse sectors such as capital, infrastructure, policy, and product, Web3 Investor Day fosters long-term relationships and facilitates meaningful investment discussions. The event bridges the traditional business world with frontier innovation.
“Full Speed Ahead” is the centering discussion that details into such key aspects as:
- Perspectives of Asset Allocators and Family Offices on Crypto and AI
- The Web3 and AI Supercycle
- Liquidity in public and private Web3 markets
- Regulatory and Policy trends
- The Future of Money
- Strategic capital formation in venture and liquid markets
