Whether you experienced Avalanche Summit LATAM in person or from a far, we’ve started rolling out a multi-part series with an in-depth look at what went down over 7 days in beautiful Buenos Aires, Argentina. So far in the series, we’ve explored Why We Chose Latin America for Avalanche Summit, how Gaming is Going Mainstream and what makes the Community and Culture special, and today we’ll look at the world of institutional blockchain adoption.

Institutional Trends Shaping Mainstream Crypto Adoption

Exploring institutional growth strategies, varying themes leading to tokenization, and trends stemming from the progression of mainstream crypto adoption, Summit LATAM brought together industry thought leaders from around the world and some of the brightest minds within the Ava Labs ecosystem.

Explore the institutional growth strategies and trends shaping crypto policy and influencing the future of finance with Ava Lab’s Chief Operating Officer, Luigi D'Onorio Demeo, Galaxy’s Head of Americas Sales, Kelly Greer and SkyBridge Partner and SALT CEO, John Darsie. This session uncovers the political tactics and power shifts driving the adoption of crypto on a mainstream stage.

Get inside the minds of banking thought leaders as they look forward to a tech-powered Web3 future. Tap into the conversation with Ava Labs’ Head of Institutions & Capital Markets, Morgan Krupetsky, and Onyx Digital Assets (Onyx by J.P. Morgan) Head of Product Keerthi Moudgal to explore how traditional finance may be envisioning a world where a blockchain-enabled ecosystem is the norm.

What happens after you tokenize a real world asset? How do you create products, services and opportunities to bring off-chain users on-chain and meet people where they are? Explore go-to-market strategies for launching, marketing, and scaling RWAs with Onyx Digital Assets (Onyx by J.P. Morgan) Head of Product, Keerthi Moudgal, Dinari CTO & Co-Founder, Jake Timothy, TomNext Co-Founder & CEO, Itay Tuchman, August Co-Founder & Co-CEO, Alex Elkrief and ProfitR COO Sarahjon Reilly. Better understand asset deployment and how to identify strategic distribution channels directly from thought leaders across asset classes.

How can we bring greater utility to real world assets (RWAs) and integrate them into the DeFi ecosystem? Listen in with Ava Labs’ SVP of Corporate Development, Lydia Chiu, Securitize Credit’s Head of Business Development, Reid Simon, Re Co-Founder & CEO Karn Saroya, Gravitas & Avant Co-Founder & CEO, Rhett Shipp, and Backed Finance Head of BD, Bernardo Quintao. Dive into how RWAs are being used to enhance DeFi protocols, improve liquidity, and drive novel opportunities while navigating regulatory requirements.

New technology brings new myths. Since the tokenization of real world assets emerged as a method to improve efficiencies, democratize access to investment opportunities, and bring more liquidity to asset classes, common misconceptions still persist. Watch Ava Labs’ Head of Institutions & Capital Markets, Morgan Krupetsky keynote on the transformative potential tokenization-focused protocols present for institutions and individuals to access, build, and further leverage investment portfolios.
