Token Crowdfunding: What Tokenisation Is and the Value to Businesses for Fundraising

Enterprise Explores the world of tokenisation and token crowdfunding. As the digital landscape evolves, so does the way that businesses can raise capital, but what exactly is tokenisation and token crowdfunding? And how does it differ from the equity crowdfunding or from Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs) that got quite a lot of buzz a few years back?

To break down these concepts and explore the value proposition they hold for the business community, we're joined by Nicholas Chong, Head of Token Crowdfunding with Malaysian crowdfunding platform pitchIN. Among other things, we'll break down the essence of tokenization, understand the intricacies of token crowdfunding, and distinguish it from ICOs and IEOs. We'll also delve into the process of token crowdfunding and asset tokenization, as well as how this financial evolution can change the game for how businesses raise funds.
