PUNTA CANA, Dominican Republic — BlockCon Global has confirmed the speaker roster for its 2026 executive business retreat, a four-day program dedicated to the infrastructure layer of the digital economy. The event takes place November 25–28, 2026, at the Barceló Bávaro Grand Resort in Punta Cana, with registration open across three access tiers.

Organizers expect attendees from more than 60 countries, 50% of them C-level executives, alongside 50 curated speakers and over 90 represented companies. That composition — Gulf capital, regulators, analytics vendors and infrastructure founders in one program — is the practical expression of the retreat's stated focus: the payments, compliance and market systems the digital economy runs on, rather than any single asset or project.

Gulf capital anchors the program. Shaikh Ali Sultan Al Nuaimi of the Royal Family of the Emirate of Ajman, BOF Investments and Ajman Bank, is joined by Imad Al-Abdulgader, Partner at DGA–Albright Stonebridge Group; Sarah Abuagela of Ceras Ventures; and Danish Chotani of Burj Financial.

Regulatory and public-sector authority sits in the same room. Camila Santana of Revolut, a regulatory expert and former supervisor in Colombia, appears alongside Julio César Valentín, Superintendent of Insurance of the Dominican Republic, and Senator Mario Ishii of Buenos Aires Province, among others. The roster's regulatory footprint spans Colombia, the Dominican Republic and Argentina — three jurisdictions whose public institutions directly shape how digital finance, insurance and gaming oversight intersect with the industry.

The institutional and infrastructure layer is represented by Tomás Pérez Quevedo, Co-Founder at Makachain; Geraldine Pacheco, Account Executive for Latin America and the Caribbean at Chainalysis; and Donald Lavoile, founder of Venturis13 Global Holdings.

“Convergence is not something you announce. It is something you produce,” said Raymond Ratti, CEO and Co-Founder of BlockCon Global. “A central bank supervisor, a Gulf investor, a compliance architect and an infrastructure founder each hold one part of the same system. BlockCon exists to put those parts in the same room, for four days, under conditions where a conversation becomes a decision.”

According to the organizers, BlockCon is built on the concept of “decision density” — the concentration of decision-making power in the room. The agenda spans stablecoins and digital payments, tokenization and real-world assets, prediction markets, iGaming infrastructure, regulatory architecture and cross-border payment rails — a that maps the points where capital, compliance and operator businesses currently meet. Formats include closed-door sessions, business roundtables, a Casino Experience and the Cigar & Rum Room.

Three access tiers are available, with pricing starting at $195. With the retreat more than a year out, the markers to watch are further speaker confirmations, publication of the detailed session agenda, and any partnerships or initiatives announced once the four days of closed-door sessions conclude. Registration is open at blockcon.co/tickets.
