Thank you to Fordham Law students Bailey Swartz and Jordan Blum for their tireless contributions to this event.

The Fordham Blockchain Law Symposium is unique not only in presenting the most current issues but also in getting thought leaders to discuss and debate cutting edge legal theories. The symposium is also the best networking event for any lawyer working in this space.

Unquestionably the most important event of the year for serious legal practitioners of blockchain and cryptocurrency law.

Stephen Rutenberg
Partner, Co-head of Blockchain+ Practice Team, Polsinelli PC

There's no other event, maybe anywhere in the world, that brings so many of the top legal minds in crypto together. You leave the event smarter than you arrived and it's a reminder of why there's no other area of law I'd rather practice.

Larry Florio
General Counsel, 1kx

One of the few must-attend annual events for crypto lawyers, encouraging frank discussion among the country’s top practitioners.

I learned a great deal at the Fordham Law Blockchain Regulatory Symposium.  Few events bring together so many thoughtful speakers from across the ecosystem, along with policymakers and government officials of different stripes.  Now more than ever, this is a must-attend for people interested in these issues.

This symposium is a “must attend” for me. The faculty bring together the very best thought leaders and regulators in the blockchain space. Given the faculty’s reputation for fostering profound and practical discussions on topics at the cutting edge of this industry with a sophisticated audience, I am looking forward to this year’s event!

Last year’s Symposium provided unvarnished insights from leading lawyers on a wide range of topics relevant for blockchain technology and digital assets. The Chatham House Rule format allowed for important, honest debates that advanced my thinking.  This conference is one of the best available and not to be missed.
