In Brief

DFG hosted a private TOKEN2049 Singapore event, “From Bees to Blockchain,” exploring collaboration, sustainability, and lessons from natural ecosystems to inspire innovation and value creation in the Web3 space.

Global investment firm focused on blockchain and cryptocurrency, Digital Finance Group (DFG) hosted a private afternoon event titled “From Bees to Blockchain: Sweet Lessons in Collaboration” on October 2 at the Sentosa Pavilion during TOKEN2049 Singapore 2025. The gathering brought together a select group of partners, key opinion leaders, founders, and ecosystem contributors for an experience designed to integrate nature, innovation, and collective purpose.

The event ran from 3:30 PM to 6:00 PM, beginning with honey-infused welcome drinks and opening remarks from Angela Tong, CMO of DFG and Jsquare, who highlighted the significance of collaboration and partnership within the Web3 ecosystem.

Attendees were then introduced to the world of bees by John Chong, Founder of BEE AMAZED Garden, whose presentation provided detailed insights into honeybee behavior and intelligence. The session covered techniques for minimizing stings, constructing hives with limited resources, and appreciating bees as nature’s original advocates of sustainability, offering reflections on the importance of collective effort and resilience.
