Paris Blockchain Week is getting a new owner, a new name and a broader mandate. Hyve Group, the events company behind RAISE Summit and MACHINA Summit, has acquired Signal Week – the entity that formerly ran Paris Blockchain Week – along with those two sister events. The conference will now be called Signal Week and expand its scope beyond blockchain to include artificial intelligence, Hyve said in a statement.
Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed. The first Signal Week under Hyve's ownership is scheduled for December 2025 in Paris. The acquisition folds three separate European tech summits into one portfolio, giving Hyve a single-branded event covering blockchain, AI and startup investing.
For a conference circuit that has seen attendance slip in some corners since the 2022 crypto downturn, the move signals a bet on convergence – organizers expect the combined event to draw a broader audience than a pure blockchain conference could. The new format will include dedicated tracks for AI infrastructure, tokenization and venture capital, according to the company.
