CryptoMondays Cape Town, CV Labs, and the Stellar Development Foundation are teaming up for an evening of real conversations, genuine connections, and good vibes as we explore what it means to build in the EMEA region and the opportunities opening up across Africa, the Middle East, and Europe.
This session will unpack why EMEA is becoming one of the most exciting regions for tech and Web3 builders in 2026, covering the founder landscape, fundraising, non-dilutive funding opportunities, infrastructure growth, policy support, regional collaboration, and how building in EMEA differs from other global markets.
The evening also marks a perfect launch moment for the Stellar x CV Labs Accelerator, a 12-week program for early-stage founders building in Payments, DeFi, and RWAs across Africa, the Middle East, and Europe, backed by the Stellar Development Foundation. This event is a chance to meet team members, mentors, connect with the ecosystem, and learn more about the regional opportunities and whether the program is the right fit for you.
