Singapore, 3 October 2025 — Against the backdrop of the electrifying Formula 1 weekend, MUNG Legal hosted its second annual WEB300 Professionals Conference at 80 Robinson Road, bringing together over a hundred industry veterans, legal experts, investors, and founders from across Asia, Europe, and the Americas. Following the overwhelming success of last year’s Hong Kong edition, the 2025 Singapore event cemented WEB300’s reputation as one of the region’s most forward-thinking Web3 gatherings focused on collaboration between law, technology, and capital.
From Courtrooms to Code: A Day of Thought Leadership
The day opened with Monin Ung, Founder of WEB300 and Managing Director of MUNG Legal, delivering an inspiring keynote on the importance of structured governance in emerging technologies. She drew parallels between regulatory clarity and sustainable innovation, setting the stage for the day’s central theme — bridging Web3 innovation with legal and institutional frameworks.
The first session, “Courtroom Drama: A Survey of Global Blockchain Disputes,” dissected real-world legal challenges across jurisdictions and emphasized the need for transnational cooperation in dispute resolution.
Real World Assets Take Center Stage
Moderated by Charu Sethi (Principal Polkadot Ambassador & President of Unique Network) and Ekta Thakral (Former Head of Financial Crime Compliance at Rapyd), the “What’s So Hot About RWAs” segment explored how tokenization is reshaping finance, real estate, cultural tourism, and life sciences.
Participants split into themed tables led by industry veterans including Mike Tanji (Executive Director, DAFTA Partners), Vincent Chan (Astar Network), Muralli Rajaram (Director, Sreenivasan Chambers LLC), Julian Lam (MUNG Legal), Aaron Kessler (FatCat), and others — turning the discussion into a hands-on collaboration on real-world tokenization models.
Group representatives later pitched their ideas to a panel of seasoned judges — who provided feedback on practicality, compliance, and scalability.
AI, Startups, and the Future of Regulation
The afternoon shifted gears into the AI frontier with “AI Agents: To Be or Not to Be,” featuring Daniel Haudenschild (Founder, Synternet) and Ivan Reif (Co-Founder, K3 Labs). Together, they presented their decentralized agents, and showed that they could coexist with regulatory and ethical frameworks.
Following that, the “Where and How Should I Land?” startup session saw founders directly question leading veterans including Mr. Alan Ang, Chairman of the Asia Blockchain Association, Mr. James Cheng CFO Canaan Inc, Ms. Alice Truong VP Head of Digital Assets NUVEI, Taisuke Isono san - General Manager of Nikko Open Innovation Lab, Dr. Toh Han Chong Deputy CEO National Cancer Centre Singapore and Belinda Lim Manager at Sandbox— sparking candid conversations about capital flow, exchange listings, and cross-border compliance.
