Partnerships Manager / Account Executive – Paris Blockchain Week

Chain Of Events is a Paris-based company behind Paris Blockchain Week, Europe’s flagship event at the intersection of digital assets and traditional finance. Since its inception in 2019, Paris Blockchain Week has grown into a key meeting point for global leaders in finance, technology, policy, and innovation, laying the foundation for the next generation of strategic dialogue in digital finance.

The 6th edition of Paris Blockchain Week was held in April 2025 at the Carrousel du Louvre in Paris, welcoming over 10,000 attendees, 500+ speakers, 350+ sponsors, and 500+ media representatives. It brought together the world’s most influential voices to shape the future of finance, explore the evolution of blockchain infrastructure, and discuss the convergence of Web3 technologies with traditional capital markets.

Paris Blockchain Week is more than an event - it is where global institutions, startups, policymakers, and investors meet to accelerate the integration of digital assets into traditional finance.
