El Salvador Digital Assets Summit | Calle Loma Norte 4, San Salvador, El Salvador

About El Salvador Digital Assets Summit

Join us at the El Salvador Digital Assets Summit 2025, a premier international gathering focused on demystifying the risks, myths, and misconceptions surrounding digital assets. Taking place on April 28–29, 2025 at the Hilton San Salvador, this summit brings together global regulators, innovators, and industry leaders to share strategies, regulatory frameworks, and pioneering use cases driving the future of digital finance.

After over three years of hands-on experience in digital asset regulation and supervision, El Salvador is ready to share its journey and lessons learned—positioning itself as a model for innovation and responsible adoption. In a rapidly evolving ecosystem, the summit will serve as a global platform to foster cross-sector collaboration between public and private institutions, spark dialogue on inclusive regulation, and introduce new tools for compliance and risk management. Organized by the National Digital Assets Commission, this event is set to become an annual destination for thought leaders shaping the next chapter of the digital economy.
