As digital assets continue to transform the global financial landscape, board leaders must stay ahead of this rapidly evolving space on many fronts. From blockchain technology to tokenized commodities and new asset classes, the digitization of money, assets, and investments is unlocking both significant opportunities and complex challenges that demand informed oversight and strategic leadership. With a new administration in Washington DC focused on this arena, the tax and regulatory environment could evolve rapidly. Given their duty to oversee strategy and risk, boards have a responsibility to understand this evolving and increasingly mainstream market to address the opportunities and risks that are arising for the companies they oversee.
Join us for an in-depth discussion with leading experts in digital assets and investment management, along with the related legal and tax requirements. Hunter Horsley, CEO of Bitwise Asset Management, and Matthew Le Merle, CEO of Blockchain Coinvestors, will provide strategic insights into how digital assets are reshaping financial systems, asset management practices, and the regulatory environment. Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman LLP Partner Megan Jones will discuss legal and tax implications, with input from Pillsbury Partner, Riaz Karamali, moderator for the program. The conversation will include input from Alison Davis, NACD Northern California board member and founder of Blockchain Coinvestors.
