RWA Day NYC
RWA · DAY
Real-World Adoption Forum – Breakfast Edition
A curated breakfast for allocators, asset issuers, infrastructure teams, and service providers in institutional RWA during ETHConf Week NYC.
ABOUT
RWA Day is a practitioner gathering focused on real adoption of tokenized finance, where TradFi workflows, compliance, distribution, and onchain rails meet in practice. Past editions have convened teams from leading asset managers, tokenization platforms, and institutional allocators. This is our third year.
For ETHConf week, we're running a breakfast edition. ETHConf brings the technical and ecosystem audience to NYC. RWA Day Breakfast brings the institutional side of this asset class together first, over coffee, before the conference day kicks off.
No panels. No keynotes. No programmed sessions. The value is the room. Lanyards make navigating it easy.
WHO YOU'LL MEET
Allocators & Treasury — Family offices, endowments, foundations, corporate/protocol treasury teams, and allocators evaluating tokenized yield, onchain settlement, and distribution.
Asset Issuers & Managers — Fund managers, private credit, structured products, real asset issuers, and teams exploring tokenized wrappers and onchain distribution.
Market Infrastructure — Tokenization platforms, custody, fund admin/reporting, broker-dealer / ATS / exchanges, stablecoin and payments rails, data/attestation, risk and compliance tooling.
Service Providers — Legal, audit, tax, accounting, identity/KYC, advisory, and adjacent service teams supporting institutional RWA at production scale.
WHAT YOU'LL LEAVE WITH
A curated set of new counterparties across the institutional RWA stack
A clearer read on what's actually shipping in tokenization right now — vs. what's still slideware
Direct conversations with the practitioners building under one roof
Optional follow-up introductions facilitated post-event
DESIGNED FOR INTROS
RWA Day Breakfast is unprogrammed by design. The value is the room. The lanyards make navigating it easy.
Rules of the Room — Curated room, application required. No attendee list sharing. No solicitation in the room. Curated intros only when aligned.
CONVERSATION THEMES
No scheduled sessions. These are the topics that tend to come up organically when this room is in one place.
Onchain capital markets — what's shipping, what's blocked
Tokenization structures — SPV, fund, and direct issuance approaches
Yield & distribution — wealth platforms to onchain pools
Compliance & custody — qualified custody and regulatory constraints
Settlement & infrastructure — rails, standards, and interoperability
Institutional DeFi — permissioned pools and composability tradeoffs

FAQ
How are applications reviewed? Every application is reviewed by the host for relevance and fit, prioritizing operators, decision-makers, and practitioners across allocators, issuers, infrastructure, and service providers. The goal is a balanced room.
Is there a cost to attend? No. Attendance is complimentary for approved applicants. Sponsors make this format possible.
Will I get introductions, or am I on my own? Lanyards are color-coded by role (Allocator / Asset Issuer / Infrastructure / Service Provider) so you can find the right people at a glance. Travis circulates and makes targeted introductions where there's clear alignment.
Can I bring colleagues? Applications are individual. If multiple team members want to attend, each should apply separately. We balance representation across organizations to keep the room diverse.
