DAS London 2026 runs 10 to 11 November 2026 at the Hilton Park Lane, and NAUT's DAS London 2026 page lists 64 companies on the sponsor grid and the speaker roster, with 309 decision makers at them. Blockworks runs the event, 20 of the 64 are investors and 44 are operating companies, and 53 of the 64 have at least 1 named decision maker on NAUT with a route to reach them.
How this list was built: NAUT captured the DAS London sponsor grid on blockworks.com on 9 October 2026, plus the employer of every confirmed speaker on that page. The tiers below are the tiers blockworks.com showed on that date. Blockworks has added names to the grid since, so read the tiers as of 9 October and the counts as of 25 October 2026, when they were pulled from NAUT. This is a roster of organisations on the programme, so it does not show who has bought a ticket.

Who is going to DAS London 2026?
20 of the 64 companies hold a paid tier on the sponsor grid, and the other 44 are on the roster because a named speaker works there. These are the DAS London sponsors in the tiers blockworks.com showed on 9 October 2026.
| Tier | Companies |
|---|---|
| Organiser | |
| Presenting | |
| Diamond | |
| Platinum | |
| Gold |
The Gold tier is where the custody, compliance and data vendors sit: Komainu and Utila in custody, Notabene in travel-rule compliance, Arkham, Dune and Goldsky in on-chain data. A vendor selling into that stack is pitching against those 6 in the same room.

What DAS London 2026 gives a BD team
- The 20 sponsors are the warmest targets on the list. A paid tier means a budget and a team already booked into London for 2 days.
- Sell infrastructure and the Gold tier is your competition set, so lead with what Komainu, Utila, Notabene, Arkham, Dune and Goldsky do not cover.
- Sell to banks and the speaker roster is the door: BlackRock, Goldman Sachs, Standard Chartered Bank, Barclays, BBVA, TD Securities, M&G Investments and DTCC all send someone.
- Titles beat headcount. Broadridge lists 1 decision maker on NAUT and the title is Head of Tokenized Product, International, which is the person who signs a tokenisation pilot.

What DAS London 2026 gives a founder raising

- 4 of them list 11 or more decision makers on NAUT: Dragonfly at 22, Circle at 12, RockawayX at 12 and Wintermute at 11, so you can target a partner rather than a general inbox.
- The smaller funds on the roster list 1 named person each, which is usually the founder or managing partner: Lekker Capital, Frictionless Capital, Theta Capital Management, Digital Finance Group (DFG), Blockdaemon Ventures and Nickel Digital Asset Management.

Tempo raised $500M in a Series A led by Thrive Capital and Greenoaks, and ZkSync builder Matter Labs has raised $458M including a $200M ecosystem fund, so the biggest names on the roster are buyers of services more often than seekers of capital.
