December 16, 2019: Red Building Capital and BlackStorm Consulting announced their partnership with the objective of collaboratively maximising the potential of Red Building Capital’s portfolio companies in the blockchain and cryptocurrency industries.
Internet penetration in Southeast Asia has been increasing with over 60 percent of the region being digitally literate in 2019. Indonesia, home to Southeast Asia’s largest population, has seen their number of internet users grow by 20 percent over the past two years. 7 out of 11 countries in Southeast Asia has a higher internet penetration than the world average. This sets up a favourable environment for blockchain related projects.
Furthermore, ASEAN government portrays a positive outlook on the blockchain industry. Being one of the biggest supporters of technology and cryptocurrencies, the administrations drafted various crypto-friendly regulations to smoothen the infiltration of blockchain technology. Spearheading the industry, Singapore helped to pioneer the Initial Coin Offering (ICO) market, during the period when Japan and South Korea pulled out their support for blockchain start-ups. Meanwhile, Thailand is the first country to plan a regulated crypto exchange market and validating cryptocurrencies as an asset class.
Red Building Capital is a Taiwan-based tech-oriented investment firm focusing on not only blockchain and emerging technologies industries but also equities, tokens, and resources support.
