The security token industry is unfolding and emerging fast. One of the most insightful offerings of our Security Token Academy is our Security Token Expert Series. Our live-online videos and panel discussions bring together experts from various locations (such as DC, New York City, Los Angeles and San Francisco) for in-depth conversations on topics ranging from the regulations and other issues driving the move toward security tokens, to how security tokens can be used for security token offerings (STOs) as well as tokenizing global assets.
The Security Token Academy presents a new corporate member interview series with David Weild, founder and CEO of Weild & Co. and former Vice Chairman of Nasdaq. Weild & Co. enables registered professionals to provide capital raising services including strategic advisory, M&A, private placements, and public securities offerings. Adam Chapnick, Security Token Academy’s director of programming, interviews David Weild and discusses why security tokens are a preferred method of issuance over traditional securities, as well as what potential roadblocks companies issuing security tokens may face. This interview is the first in a series of corporate member interviews featuring David Weild.
Our Security Token Expert Panel brings together key experts to review how Security Token Offerings (STOs) relate to Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs). They discuss the evolution of the nascent ICO industry, from the early ICO phase in 2017 to the STO phase now beginning in 2018. They also review the regulatory actions and directions of key U.S. regulators including the SEC, and FinCEN, and how those may impact ICOs and lay the foundation for STOs.
Security tokens are often viewed as an extension of Initial Coin Offerings toward regulated ICOs, but is there more to the story? Tune in for a discussion on two value propositions of security tokens: 1) To help companies, such as startups, raise money (new issuances), and 2) to help improve liquidity of existing assets such as real estate, equity and debt. Hear from Carlos Domingo, Founder and CEO of Securitize, and Jeremy Gardner, Co-founder and Managing Partner at Ausum Ventures.
Although security tokens can be used in conjunction with the creation of new securities via Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs), Security Token Offerings (STOs), or even Initial Public Offerings (IPOs), there is a bigger application -- the tokenization of global assets. Joseph Cammarata of tZERO and Chris Housser of Polymath Network join our host Adam Chapnick for an in-depth discusssion on this topic. This is our second expert panel discussion in our Security Token Expert Series, and is a follow-up to our previous expert panel on security tokens, and the possible evolution of ICOs to STOs.
As the building blocks for the security token industry emerge, one essential area is the technical foundations of security tokens. We know blockchain and smart contracts are key technical elements, but where are they going? What is the future of the ERC20 token standard and other key foundations of security tokens? You'll learn that and much more in this Expert Series webinar with industry leader and securities attorney, Jor Law. We covered core foundations, recent directions as well as future trends of the technical foundations of security tokens – and more!
