Fusion Foundation, the non-profit organization building the next generation infrastructure for decentralized global finance, today announced it is now partnering with Grayblock Power, a financing platform connecting developers to investors in real estate and energy-backed assets, to list and issue new digital assets based on Toronto real estate and clean energy sources.
Launched in August 2018, Toronto-based Grayblock Power introduces a new way to invest in clean energy and turn that energy into a long-term investment vehicle. The company accomplishes this by offering competitive long-term returns compared to traditional fixed income products based on real assets, creating a transparent and secure investment environment through the use of smart contracts and blockchain, and selecting only 100% clean-air energy technologies for investment.
In April 2019, Grayblock Power was awarded the third prize out of 20 startups shortlisted and over 700 submissions in the 3rd Global Blockchain Challenge at the Future Blockchain Summit in Dubai.
“Fusion is a broad-based system that can help launch financial products and security token offerings,” said Chris Ciaravino, CEO and Founder of Grayblock Power. “Our mission is two-fold: to issue our first-ever digital asset-backed investment based on Toronto Real Estate, and to create investment opportunities within clean energy. We see Fusion as the ideal partner to aid us in achieving both objectives.”
“Grayblock is a great example of a company leveraging Fusion technology to create new investment opportunities quickly and effectively in a regulated environment,” said Dejun Qian, Founder and CEO of Fusion. “By leveraging Fusion, Grayblock is able to introduce the general public to digital assets based on real estate and clean energy that were previously inaccessible.”
