Dubai to Host RWA SUMMIT on May 1 as Part of the Global RWA WEEK Initiative PRESS RELEASE. Dubai will host RWA SUMMIT Dubai on May 1, 2026, at Uptown Tower (DMCC), bringing together institutional investors, regulators, founders, and infrastructure leaders shaping the next phase of real-world asset tokenization. The summit forms part of the broader global initiative RWA WEEK, an international platform designed to connect regional tokenization ecosystems and accelerate the institutional adoption of blockchain-based financial infrastructure. The announcement follows the strong momentum generated earlier this year in Asia, where RWA SUMMIT Hong Kong gathered 2,322 registrations, 745 senior attendees and 147 active investors, demonstrating that tokenization has moved decisively beyond experimentation and into structured institutional deployment. The conversations emerging from that gathering reflected a market no longer questioning whether real-world assets will transform finance, but focusing instead on execution, interoperability, and scalable infrastructure. RWA WEEK was created as a global framework uniting industry stakeholders across jurisdictions that are advancing regulatory clarity and practical implementation of tokenized assets. Within this broader initiative, RWA SUMMIT Dubai represents the Middle East’s institutional entry point into the rapidly forming Asia–Middle East corridor of digital finance. The UAE’s progressive regulatory environment and growing concentration of capital allocators have positioned Dubai as a natural hub for discussions surrounding the next stage of tokenization adoption. The summit is expected to convene more than 400 senior participants supported by over 1,500 ecosystem registrations, including institutional investors, founders, financial institutions, technology providers, and policymakers actively involved in bringing real-world assets on-chain. Discussions throughout the event will address the evolving regulatory landscape in the UAE and globally, the tokenization of financial products, commodities and real estate, the emergence of new payment and settlement infrastructure, institutional scaling strategies, the rise of RWAFI at the intersection of decentralized and traditional finance, the positioning of tokenized assets as a distinct institutional asset class, and the integration of artificial intelligence within tokenization ecosystems as the industry transitions from narrative-driven experimentation to operational deployment. RWA WEEK will gather a distinguished lineup of global speakers contributing to the evolution of digital finance and tokenized markets, including Mohammed Ebrahim Al Fardan (Al Fardan Ventures), Ahmed Bin Sulayem (Executive Chairman & CEO, DMCC), Ruben Bombardi (VARA), Mohammad Raafi Hassain (Fasset), Charles d’Haussy (dYdX Foundation), Kate Kim (KAST), Talal Tabbaa (CoinMENA), Alex Scott ( Solana Superteam Middle East), Rajat Sakhuja (Mastercard), Joseph El Am (PRYPCO), Juliet Su (NewTribe Capital), Philipp Caspers-Pabst (ZIGChain), Mark Dymock (SC Ventures), Adam Bilko (RockawayX), and other industry leaders. “Hong Kong demonstrated that institutional capital is no longer watching from the sidelines,” said Ivan V. Ivanov, Founder of UVECON.VC and Co-Host of RWA WEEK. “ RWA SUMMIT Dubai represents the next step in building a strategic bridge between Asia and the Middle East — regions that are advancing fastest in real regulatory implementation. The future of tokenization will depend on coordination between infrastructure builders, capital allocators and regulators working toward shared standards.” “Tokenization scales only when legal architecture, regulatory clarity and capital alignment evolve together. The UAE has invested significant effort in building that foundation, and Dubai now provides an environment where asset issuers and founders can bring real-world assets on-chain at institutional scale,” added Irina Heaver, Founder of NeosLegal and Founding Member of RWAlabs.ae. RWA WEEK is co-hosted by UVECON.VC and RWAlabs.ae, with strategic partners including dYdX Foundation, NeosLegal, NewTribe Capital and LynxCap Investments, while Forbes serves as media partner. As tokenization transitions from a market narrative into financial infrastructure, RWA SUMMIT Dubai positions itself as one of the defining gatherings shaping how real-world assets integrate into the global financial system.
