Silicon Valley meets Switzerland: Fund the next generation of deep tech innovators


Zug, Switzerland, July 20, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- (via Blockchain Wire) The pandemic has led to a warp-speed transformation of the economy, building on and evolving the technological breakthroughs of the past decade. For tech innovators, it has accelerated demand for their solutions - solutions to securely digitize healthcare data, make supply chains resilient, secure digital identities, optimize transactions through decentralization, to name a few. These innovations are enabled by the convergence of three disruptive technologies: Artificial Intelligence (AI), Internet of Things (IoT), and Blockchain, which together are expected to add staggering $32 trillion to the global economy by 2030. Investment in these innovators has been mostly available only to large venture capital funds. SVBS1 - Disruptive Tech Portfolio (AMC) changes this. As an Actively Managed Certificate (AMC) with Swiss ISIN, the SVBS1 - Disruptive Tech Portfolio offers qualified investors access to:

  • VALUE FROM DISRUPTIVE TECH: All 20+ companies in the AMC create value from the disruptive technologies of the 21st century, incl. AI, Blockchain and IoT
  • DIVERSIFIED PORTFOLIO: Start-ups in various stages of maturity, operating in different industries and diversified by regions form a constantly growing portfolio, selected in a multi-stage process with in-depth due diligence in place. 
  • SYNERGIES OF A GLOBAL ECOSYSTEM: The Silicon Valley Blockchain Society (SVBS Inc.) provides the companies of the AMC a broad range of additional support, including access to an expert network, global exposure, and long-term growth. The SVBS network also enables the AMC companies to take advantage of synergy effects among themselves. The proximity to the companies also allows to provide constant updates and reporting to investors.

Amit Pradhan, president of SVBS Inc., emphasizes theuniqueness of the product. "The disruptive potential of the portfolio companies is enormous! This is reflected in the increasing demand for new solutions and the current technological and economic development’s trajectories." Not only the portfolio but also the investment instrument is innovative. Unlike many traditional investment vehicles, the AMC with Swiss ISIN will be accessible through banks and brokers with minimum investments as small as US$10,000 - and no lockup or fixed holding period. Trading orders for the secondary market are received and processed on a best-effort basis. Proceeds of the sale of underlyings may be re-invested or partially redeemed. Because of these features, cost efficiency and application capabilities, we will see strong demand in such AMC as an alternative investment opportunity.



The strategy is actively managed by Digital Waves and advised by SVBS' seasoned management, venture capital veterans and analysts.
