Our team joined the global Cardano Foundation community in Berlin this week for the Cardano Summit 2025 where builders, researchers, and ecosystem leaders gathered to explore what it truly means for blockchain to meet enterprises.
Hosted at the iconic Gasometer venue, the event drove home one clear message from day zero through to the two-day closing keynotes: Cardano is entering its enterprise era, where visibility, usability, and real-world adoption matter as much as technology itself.
Across sessions on data-driven growth marketing, governance, interoperability, and liquidity, the conversations underscored a network ready to move from innovation to implementation – transforming world-class R&D into usable, compliant, and scalable infrastructure.
In case you missed it, here are our key takeaways:
- Enterprise adoption as a north star: As EMURGO CEO Phillip Pon emphasized in his keynote presentation, Cardano’s direction is clear. It is time to build bridges with institutional and regulated players, and strengthen infrastructure around real-world assets, liquidity, and selective-disclosure systems like Midnight Network. This coordination across Input Output Global (IOG), Cardano Foundation, and Intersect marks a pivotal step forward.
- Real-world infrastructure taking shape: From Cardano Foundation’s Veridian digital identity wallet to Amaru’s node-client enhancing network decentralization, the ecosystem’s enterprise-grade capabilities are steadily coming together.
- Unified ecosystem strategy: Cardano’s next leap lies in aligning marketing, communications, and ecosystem growth – connecting not just internal initiatives but regional industry and policy platforms across India, Africa, and Asia.
- From activity to outcome: With 74% of survey participants agreeing that marketing spend must increase and do more, the focus now shifts from event presence to narrative presence. Sustained, data-led storytelling that connects Cardano’s technical credibility with enterprise relevance will be key.
As Cardano strengthens its position where blockchain meets enterprise, Wachsman stands ready to help connect vision with visibility and amplify the ecosystem’s leadership, infrastructure, and real-world impact worldwide.
After all, as Frederik Gregaard, Cardano CEO, noted in the summit’s closing remarks: “where AI has agents, blockchain has people and this is our superpower.”
