Aptos NYC 2025
Exponent Labs embedded in The Aptos Experience: NYC — Aptos Labs' flagship builder conference in Brooklyn — and caught the developer relations team and the culture builders orbiting it, on camera, unscripted.
The Aptos Experience: NYC was Aptos Labs' second annual flagship conference, held October 15–16, 2025 at ZeroSpace in Brooklyn — two days of builder talks and a dedicated Builder House for 1:1 founder guidance, opening with drinks and shuffleboard at Royal Palms and closing with an official afterparty at Chinese Tuxedo. Rocky Nguyen attended for Exponent Labs, capturing conversations with the Aptos Labs developer relations team and the culture-and-community builders working to bring Web3 experiences to people who've never touched a wallet.
