Proof of Talk Abu Dhabi is the summit’s first edition in the Gulf. Its programme will examine how financial institutions and technology companies are using digital assets and AI. The discussions will also cover tokenisation, stablecoins and their role in financial markets.
Announced participants include:
- Binance founder Changpeng Zhao;
- Jenny Johnson, President and CEO of Franklin Templeton;

The summit will also feature StableDay, a series of closed-door discussions on the use of stablecoins in banking, payments and settlement. Another part of the programme, Proof of Pitch, will give startups an opportunity to present their ideas to investors.
