On December 10, Abu Dhabi becomes the global epicenter of decentralized physical infrastructure as DePIN Day lands with its 14th edition. Taking place during Solana Breakpoint — the annual gathering of one of the most dynamic ecosystems in Web3 — this year’s event arrives at a moment when the industry is evolving faster than ever. The rapid expansion of DePIN Day reflects a broader shift across the sector: founders, operators and investors are seeking a dedicated space to collaborate, compare models and accelerate the next generation of real-world networks.

As Solana increasingly positions itself as the home for DePIN, Abu Dhabi becomes the natural place where the builders of physical infrastructure and the broader Solana community come together under one roof.

Organized by Fluence and supported by Impossible Cloud Network, this edition brings together the teams building the physical backbone of Web3. The event will spotlight how decentralized compute, storage, wireless connectivity, mobility systems and sensor networks are transitioning from experimental concepts to real-world infrastructure

The program will feature a curated set of voices from across the ecosystem, including Tom Trowbridge (Fluence), Kai Wawrzinek (Impossible Cloud Network), Raj Karan (io.net), Mark Rydon (Aethir), Neil Chatterjee (DAWN), Uroš Kalabić (onocoy), Fredrik Ahlgren (Sourceful Energy), all of whom will share insights from building at the intersection of hardware, cryptoeconomics and large-scale network coordination. True to the spirit of DePIN Day, the focus remains on high-signal discussions, practical experience from teams deploying in the field and the capital formation required to scale real-world networks globally.

Here’s what DePIN industry leaders are saying about the event:“DePIN Day is my favorite — it brings together the most incredible founders genuinely rethinking industries and infrastructure through DePIN.” Clara Tsao, Filecoin Foundation“DePIN Day is always one of my favorite events — no matter which conference I’m at.”Mark Rydon, Aethir “Thanks so much for having us.
We all said it was an excellent event and it stood out to us compared
to others we attended
by a mile.”Lyllah Ledesma, DAWN
