THE TECHNOLOGY & INNOVATION SESSION: BLOCKCHAIN, DEFI & CRYPTO
09:55 – 10:05 AMSTABLE – Stabilizing Digital Token’s Universe – Low Volatility Arbitrage Entity
Mr. Krzysztof Kolaczynski, CEO & Co-Founder, Stable Foundation
Cryptocurrencies and digital tokens are risky – their prices and relative values change dramatically and unpredictably. Price instability is preventing a wider adoption of this vital digital innovation, as potential new users are deterred by the volatility. It is difficult to use digital tokens for payments or other business purposes in such circumstances. Existing token’s volatility is extreme. Price drops of more than 10% in one hour do happen, even for the most established tokens such as Bitcoin and Ethereum. Less popular tokens experience even higher levels of price variability

11:30 – 11:50 AMFireside Chat: Underwriting Talent for the Future 
Ms. Rasha Saïd Khawaja, Founder, The Toucan Project and Deputy of the Saïd Foundation
Mr. Peter Bruce-Clark, Partner, Social Impact Capital
The trajectory of society, and the planet at large, is dependent upon the people who build it. As history shows, that talent comes from all walks of life. The challenge is that not all of us benefit from the same advantages or privileges afforded by our specific circumstances — geographically, financially, socially, or intellectually. As opportunities are unfairly distributed, a lot of untapped talent never reaches its full potential due to large or perhaps slight differences in access to hand. Even a marginal difference in this access could result in us identifying and supporting young leaders who could profoundly impact our societies for the better. In this personal fireside talk, Rasha Khawaja will explain and explore her work as part of the Toucan Project, which supports the development and lives of youth across the world in reaching their full potential from the very earliest of stages. She will be interviewed by Peter Bruce-Clark, who will speak about the entrepreneurial opportunities of promoting diverse and thoughtful access to resources.

Max will also touch upon why the luxury industry should pivot towards a metaverse and NFT strategy focusing on digital collectibles as an asset class; certifications of ownership; what gives a digital asset value; and how they can be a promising investment for HNWIs, technologists, art lovers & collectors.

12:20 – 12:35 PMHow to Protect a Portfolio against Volatility and Major Market Corrections – a Discussion with
Mr. Michel Meert, Head of Investment Advisory to Family Offices, Endowments and Foundations, Barnett Waddingham
A truly long term investor, like a family office, should not worry about short term volatility and can even take advantage of it. However, seeking real diversification between asset classes and specific investments, is key in order to limit major drawdowns. A portfolio should be aligned with the objectives and with the embedded investment beliefs of the decision makers or owners. Building a portfolio in a sustainable way is also important to achieve the goals over a long term perspective, as well as a reflection on long term trends in society and their impact on how investments are structured.
12:35 – 12:45 PMVirtual Retirement Community – The Way of the Future
Mr. Moti Bari Barmherzig, Founder & Chairman, Sparko Virtual Retirement Community (VRC)

Ms. Cheryl Calegari, Global Marketing Leader
Mr. Chris Kenna, Chairman & Founder, Brand Advance
Luxury can be seen as an outdated and meaningless word through the lens of contemporary culture, but the values that underpin it are not, allowing brands to differentiate themselves and their products, and of course their margins as a result. We’re seeing an emergence of consumers placing ‘near’ equal importance on their cultural capital as on their financial capital. Our prediction is, Brands which can offer both growth to these consumers cultural and financial capital will be the most valuable of any in the world. The challenge is to ensure that businesses and brands create and maintain relevance for these modern affluent consumers buying today, and more importantly for those who will be buying tomorrow. Our panel will seek to uncover insights in how businesses investing in ‘luxury’ businesses can be successful.
