New York, United States, April 7th, 2026/Chainwire/–Web3 ecosystem growth firm Stratosphere and Pudgy Penguins, one of the most recognized brands in the digital asset space, have officially partnered to co-host The Founders Table, a recurring private dinner series that will bring together founders, C-level executives, and institutional operators at every major Web3 conference throughout 2026.
The partnership kicked off with the first edition at Chinese Tuxedo in New York City during Digital Asset Summit 2026 on March 24th. The dinner was fully oversubscribed with 47 curated guests in the room, including leaders from Base, Solana Foundation, Ripple, LayerZero, Sui, TAO, Optimism, OpenSea, GSR, Bitget, Kast, and over 30 additional projects spanning infrastructure, DeFi, and institutional capital.
The format is intentionally simple: a curated guest list, a great venue, and no agenda. Just the kind of conversations that lead to real partnerships and long-term collaboration. Attendees called it one of the most valuable evenings of DAS week, citing the quality of the room and the intimacy of the setting as what made it stand out.
The partnership between Stratosphere and Pudgy Penguins brings together two distinct strengths. Stratosphere contributes deep BD relationships across the Web3 ecosystem and an extensive network of founders, investors, and operators built through years of hands-on work with leading projects. Pudgy Penguins brings one of the strongest consumer brands and communities in Web3, adding a cultural dimension that makes the experience feel different from a typical industry dinner.
The first edition was sponsored by Streamex Corp. (Nasdaq: STEX), Worm, and DeLorean Labs, each contributing institutional credibility, innovation, and culture to the evening.
The Founders Table is designed to scale. With editions already planned for Consensus Miami, TOKEN2049 Singapore, Korean Blockchain Week Seoul, and beyond, the series will establish a consistent, high-quality dinner circuit that the industry has been missing.
For those interested in attending or getting involved in future editions, reach out to the Stratosphere team to reserve a spot.
