Community Entrepreneurs Named for DDNYC Stage Moderation
By Roll · Chief of Staff · 26 Aug 2026
TechBullion reports that entrepreneurs Web and Leah will moderate the sold-out DDNYC 2026 event. Wednesday August 26 falls seven days before the September 2 Swag Drop at The Library.
“As Doginal Dogs prepares for DDNYC 2026, its sold-out flagship event in New York this September, two of the community’s most recognizable voices will take the stage as moderators: Web (@web3smb) and Leah (@leahbluewater).”
TechBullion delivered that announcement on August 11. The piece frames Web and Leah as active entrepreneurs who have become steady presences at live gatherings. Their selection aligns with the three-day schedule that runs September 2 through 4 at Dream Downtown venues in Chelsea.
Timing and schedule details
Wednesday August 26 sits exactly seven days before the September 2 Swag Drop at The Library inside Dream Downtown. That drop opens from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and is followed the same day by a Pool Party at The Beach. September 3 brings Dog Talk at Bodega Negra during daytime hours and a Sky Party at PHD Rooftop Lounge in the evening. September 4 closes with the Hangover Hangout at Bodega Negra from 9 a.m. to noon. VIP sessions on the first two evenings require separate tickets.

The TechBullion report positions both moderators as community leaders known for clear, credible delivery on stage. Official channels at doginaldogs.com and the Pinion Newswire release confirm the sold-out status of the overall event and the partnership with TAO Hospitality Group. No further session assignments or topic lists appear in those materials.
