Boating Accident - Turku

Boating Accident - Turku
Hackathon 18.–19.5.2026
Conference 20.–21.5.2026

From Tuomas Pigg and Jani Anttonen here:

We're both crypto industry professionals who have both worked and networked broadly in the Finnish crypto ecosystem, been making a podcast for a while now, and now we're apparently event organizers too.

We had been toying the idea of organizing crypto and blockchain related events in our hometown Turku for a while now. Back in 2021 or so there was a lot of stuff happening in Finland in terms of meetups, events and conferences, but we've seen some reduction in the frequency and energy of the events happening since.

We decided to change things up. But not just a meetup, not just *a conference*, but something bigger. We went totally wild and booked a whole cruise ship. Things just took off. We welcome you from all around the world to attend our conference in May 2026, whether you're industry professionals, just starting in crypto or institutional investors, bankers etc. Just make sure you don't lose your keys in a boating accident!

The Venue
We're going to start the conference in a medieval castle, head off to picturesque Naantali for a cruise through one of the most sprawling archipelagos in the world, and finish off with an afterparty in Naantali's Kaivohuone right on the water.
