021/Network

A studio anchored by relationships.

Operators, brands, and capital allocators that move at the speed of the market. Every partner in the 021 network is a potential launch surface, sponsor, or investor for a portco — and every venture we build inherits the room.

[ 02 / EXPERIENCES ]

Where the network converges.

021 shows up at the moments that move crypto — Token2049, Art Basel, NFT.NYC — and builds multi-day trips where attendees turn into co-investors, co-founders, and distribution partners long after the experience ends. Summits to put people in a city, retreats to put them in the same house.

[ 03 / CLUBHOUSES ]

Permanent homes for the network.

Experiences compound when there’s a permanent place the network returns to. Arts DAO’s Dubai clubhouse is the first — co-working, curated programming, cultural events, and a members-only base for the MENA Web3 community.

// in their words
Midnight Club

“Working with Midnight Club during Art Basel Miami was a game-changer. They didn’t just help us showcase Avalanche — they created an environment where collaborations also thrived. Midnight is part of a larger relationship we’ve built with 021, and their impact as partners has been instrumental in driving some successful cultural initiatives over the past year.”

John Nahas CBO, Ava Labs
Midnight Club

“At Pudgy Penguins, I’ve always believed that network is everything. Our relationship with 021 and Midnight Club has been pivotal in amplifying this belief. Midnight events were no exception — every conversation and introduction was intentional and meaningful. Midnight Club’s ability to curate a space for collaboration has been invaluable in driving the kind of partnerships that take brands like ours to the next level.”

Luca Netz CEO, Pudgy Penguins
Arts DAO

“Arts DAO brings together people from all walks of life, with culture at the epicenter of everything we do. It’s the driving force of our industry and this was one of the most memorable experiences I’ve had in the space.”

“AI is transforming industries globally, and its intersection with blockchain represents one of the most exciting opportunities ahead. Midnight Club has played a key role in helping me navigate the Web3 and culture side of this equation. Their carefully curated network and events have introduced me to key leaders in the crypto space.”

“ArtsDAO nailed it. The Token2049 Dubai event was perfectly curated, high-energy, and on-brand. Great team, great crowd — can’t wait to do more together.”

Kevin Head of Events, Pudgy Penguins
Midnight Club

“As a nominee and inbound member, I approached Art Basel with no expectations, simply because I was still discovering what the club had to offer. What I found was transformative. The networking opportunities and introductions were unparalleled, leading directly to the most significant and impactful deals in our company’s history.”

Ben Kurland CEO, DYOR
Arts DAO

“The Traveling Tribe felt like being back on college trips — only now with Web3 leaders shaping the future. Connected with Dubai’s community on a deeper level and grew my network whilst traveling for conferences IRL.”

Mohammed Ezeldin Tokenomics, Animoca Brands
Midnight Club

“Navigating the bridge between the entertainment industry and Web3 is no small task, but Midnight Club has made it seamless. Their events and network introduced me to key Web3 innovators, enabling unique collaborations between notable celebrities and crypto leaders.”

Chris Hoyle CEO, DOPE · OVO Executive
Midnight Club

“My first experience with Midnight Club was when their founders helped me build a model for a digital arm of my business, bring a top-10 blockchain partner, and raise capital. Coming from the traditional luxury lifestyle space, I have to say my experience with Midnight Club has been the most productive week that I’ve had.”

Trevor Johnson CEO, Luxury Rally Club
