The Milken Institute, in conjunction with the Kenan Institute of Private Enterprise, the outreach arm of UNC Kenan-Flagler Business School and Duke’s Fuqua School of Business, will convene thought leaders, policymakers, business leaders, experts, government officials, researchers, scholars and other key stakeholders for a two-day event focused on the latest issues impacting the fintech ecosystem. Experts will discuss financial innovation and regulatory frameworks as we ensure the responsible development of the digital assets industry. The Future of Digital Assets Symposium will also feature perspectives from legacy financial institutions and new entrants, including banks, venture capital, private equity, credit issuers, neobanks and payment processors. Topics will include the future of the financial system, inclusive models, environmental sustainability, consumer protection, financial stability and U.S. competitiveness.
The Future of Digital Assets Symposium is Day 1 of a two-day event that will bring together policymakers, practitioners and academics for conversations around how we move forward with digital assets from a use case to regulation. The symposium will focus on topics that are top of mind for our legislators. Topics include decentralized exchange (DEX), decentralized stablecoins, DAOs, Web3 applications, lending, derivatives, payments, insurance, prediction, tokenization, identity, oracles and other protocols. Day 2 of the symposium will be an academic conference with presentations of research that focus on these topics.
