BCB Group and Aon Unite 150+ Industry Power Players to Shape Digital Assets in 2026 

LONDON UK- February 18th 2026: The City is set to host one of the most influential closed-door gatherings in digital finance this February as BCB Group joins forces with Aon to deliver BLINC Live! — an invite-only summit bringing together more than 150 leaders from across the global digital asset ecosystem. BLINC Live!:

Taking place at The Aon Centre, BLINC Live lands at a pivotal moment. With the UK’s Property (Digital Assets) Act 2025 now recognising crypto as property and MiCA reshaping Europe, the industry is entering a regulatory-led expansion cycle that many are calling the true beginning of institutional digital finance.  

Tim Renew, CEO of BCB Group, said:

“This isn’t a broad conference. It’s a curated room of decision-makers: CFOs, COOs and executive leaders from banks, exchanges, insurers, and technology leaders. 

“The next growth cycle in digital assets will be driven by infrastructure, compliance and capital discipline – BLINC Live! brings together the institutions building that future.” 

Standard Chartered Bank, Google, Kraken, Keyrock, Robinhood and other leading fintech companies will be represented by senior leaders to explore the most critical fault lines in digital assets.  

Sessions will examine how: 

• CFOs are adapting to tighter capital and reporting regimes under MiCA and UK reforms. 

• The growing scrutiny of stablecoins and what systemic regulation means for settlement infrastructure. 

• The rapid expansion of blockchain-powered remittances and the operational risks that come with scale. 

• The rise of institutional and decentralised insurance solutions. 

• The accelerating threat landscape driven by AI, fraud and widening regulatory perimeters.  

Together, the agenda reflects an industry shifting from experimentation to regulated, risk-aware financial infrastructure — and defining what digital assets will look like in 2026.  

With such high-profile participation, BCB Group will capture the day’s most compelling insights and publish a dedicated podcast series to share the discussions with the wider industry.  

As institutional momentum builds and attendance continues to grow, BLINC Live! is fast establishing itself as one of the year’s defining gatherings for the organisations shaping the future of digital assets.
