Cap Intro Event

h

The Catalyst Cap Intro Blockchain for Institutional Investors is a focused asset class event hosting Blockchain related investment managers. The event is investor driven and transactional in scope, hosting investment managers and institutional grade investors that are introduced to each other with a view to become investment partners.

This is an all-new Catalyst Cap Intro Event. While Blockchain has attracted retail investors, 2022 sees the dawn of the institutional investor stepping into the space. This is made possible by a new generation of Blockchain investing firms which offer robust business set-ups, top service providers, large capacity & innovative investment strategies, and experienced investment managers. Some of the showcased strategies will include: fundamental Blockchain currencies (including Crypto, Digital tokens, NFTs & CDBC) investing, Crypto markets volatility arbitrage, income yielding Crypto strategies, precious assets and Blockchain investing, quantitative Blockchain strategies, and Blockchain ecosystem and venture investing.

The event is live, in-person, where managers give presentations during lunch, followed by private meetings. The event concludes with a networking reception. Participants are given access to a dedicated online event portal, where the agenda, meetings, event binder and delegates are listed. The event is small and exclusive, with only around 30 participants in a controlled environment.

The introductions are arranged prior the events, in an investor driven fashion based on the merits of each investment manager and the requests made by the investors. There are no service providers, only managers and investors.

Investors are pre-screened and pre-qualified prior the events, by completing a COIN questionnaire. Investors constitute predominantly single and multi-family offices, investor intermediaries, and end-investors, located in the US but also internationally.

This event production builds on Catalyst’s history and successful track record in putting together industry-recognized and effective capital raising events.
