The New Economy Edition

📍 Tulum, México

TULUM INNOVATION FEST 2026

Born from the community behind Tulum Crypto Fest.

Tulum Innovation Fest expands the conversation beyond a single industry, creating a meeting point for founders, investors, creators, innovators and community leaders exploring the future of technology, business and human connection.

Blockchain remains an important part of the story.

But today's opportunities extend across Artificial Intelligence, Digital Assets, Future Cities, Entrepreneurship, Wellness, Capital Formation, Creator Economies and Emerging Technologies.

Inspired by global gatherings such as LABITCONF,  Ibiza Tech Forum, BITBASEL, etc., Tulum Innovation Fest brings multiple communities together under one roof while preserving the spirit that made Tulum Crypto Fest possible.

For one week, Tulum becomes a concentrated environment where ideas, relationships, and opportunities accelerate.
