"Enterprise Vision Summit" to be held on April 6 | A business conference to learn about crypto assets / stablecoins / tokenized deposits / RWA / regulations / enterprise use cases

Gentosha Inc. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Toru Kenjo), which operates the crypto asset/blockchain specialized media "Atarashii Keizai," will co-host the business conference "Enterprise Vision Summit" on April 6, 2026, with Kudasai Inc. (Headquarters: Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Eisuke Watanabe), which operates Japan's largest crypto asset community "KudasaiJP."

Since 2023, Gentosha and Kudasai have jointly operated "Web3 Business Hub (WBH)," a community that provides learning and business co-creation opportunities for corporations, offering services such as seminars, research reports, and consulting to numerous member companies.

The "Enterprise Vision Summit," co-hosted by both companies, is an open conference accessible to non-community members. Under the theme of "How should companies incorporate Web3 technologies such as crypto assets and blockchain to expand business value?", the conference will feature panel discussions and lightning talks by numerous top domestic and international players and experts.

In recent years, the Web3 domain, including crypto assets and blockchain, has moved beyond the proof-of-concept stage and is transitioning into the implementation phase for corporate activities. This conference will delve into practical issues for commercialization, taking into account advanced case studies and institutional design trends both domestically and internationally. In addition to blockchain adoption cases by global companies, a wide range of topics directly relevant to future corporate business strategies will be discussed, including crypto assets, stablecoins, tokenized deposits, RWA tokenization, the latest regulatory trends, and cutting-edge Bitcoin utilization cases.

The conference provides an opportunity to re-evaluate Web3 not merely as a technological trend, but as a realistic option to support corporate growth. The event will be held from 13:00 to 18:00 (doors open at 12:30) and participation is free.

We encourage not only companies in the Web3 domain but also corporate representatives considering utilizing blockchain, crypto assets, and digital assets in their business to participate.
