Fireside Chat with Tom Farley Chief Executive Officer, Bullish

As an exclusive addition to our June programme, Startup Grind Gibraltar is delighted to welcome Tom Farley, Chief Executive Officer of Bullish, for an exclusive fireside chat exploring one of the most fascinating journeys in modern financial markets. Welcome remarks will be delivered by Hon. Minister for Justice, Trade & Industry Nigel Feetham KC MP.

From leading the New York Stock Exchange to building one of the world's most recognised regulated digital asset businesses, Tom Farley has had a front-row seat to the evolution of global finance and the growing convergence between traditional financial markets and emerging technologies.

During this conversation we will explore:

• Tom's experience leading the New York Stock Exchange and the lessons learned from one of the world's most important financial institutions.

• Bullish's launch under Gibraltar's Distributed Ledger Technology framework and why Gibraltar became part of that journey.

• The acquisition of CoinDesk and the strategic importance of combining media, research, market intelligence, indices and events alongside exchange infrastructure.

• The growth of Bullish Capital and investments in businesses building the bridge between traditional finance and digital assets.

• Bullish's work with the Government of Gibraltar and the Gibraltar Financial Services Commission on developing regulatory frameworks for the clearing and settlement of virtual asset derivatives.

• Bullish becoming the first New York Stock Exchange listed company to bring its own equity cap table onchain.

• The proposed acquisition of Equiniti and the ambition to build global infrastructure for tokenised securities and shareholder services.

• What Gibraltar can realistically contribute to the next stage of financial innovation and where the strongest opportunities may lie for businesses, investors and entrepreneurs.

This will be an opportunity to hear directly from a leader operating at the forefront of global financial innovation while exploring the role Gibraltar continues to play in shaping the future of financial services.

This event is being offered as an exclusive opportunity for Startup Grind Gibraltar members and newsletter subscribers.
