We believe trillions of dollars worth of assets will be digitized using tokenized securities. When we started SPiCE in 2017, tokenized securities were just a distant idea. To prove it can be done, we started by tokenizing ourselves. Since security tokens didn’t yet exist, we had to invent much of the legal and regulatory structure used by the industry today, and build the first generation of the technology ourselves. This gave us tremendous first-hand experience but also opened our eyes to the huge potential of tokenizing ownership, to the point that we have decided to direct much of our investment efforts to this exciting space.

Today, SPiCE is widely regarded as pioneers and leaders in the space, and we support the rapid growth of this ecosystem with capital and expertise, focusing on early stage opportunities with great teams who have the vision and ability to change the world with the blockchain.

A new open source software foundation is born to support the creation of a secure, scalable, interoperable, and trusted IoT ecosystem.

To leverage blockchain infrastructure to secure and scale IoT ecosystems. IoT systems operating in heterogeneous and decentralized environments, and consisting of multiple administrative domains represent a challenge from the point of view of trust. 

We seek to enable trust in the data produced by such IoT systems in a distributed ledger/blockchain agnostic fashion, thereby enabling a decentralized trust model for interoperable digitized identities of physical goods, documents, immobilized assets, sensors, and machines.  Finally, we wish to see this happen with the resiliency that can scale to support billions of connected devices.
