TOKEN2049 will occupy all five floors of Marina Bay Sands. Organizers described the venue as a “city within a city,” designed for networking, collaboration and new connections.

Dedicated lounges, coworking zones and networking spaces will supplement the six-stage program, which will feature founders, investors and institutions.
