As the innovation incubator in Emirates NBD Group, Liv has always remained at the forefront of digital innovation, seeking to collaborate with partners to explore and experiment with technologies that are in demand globally and in the UAE.”

The Founder and CEO of Ctrl Alt said that, “At Ctrl Alt, we are passionate about providing accessible infrastructure solutions to the thriving tokenized asset sector from Digital SPVs to Fund Structuring.
“We are really excited to be partnering with Liv who are paving the way for tokenized real-world asset investing. Liv truly represents the future of banking with its clear customer-centric focus on innovation and is waving the flag for the next generation of investors who are demanding diversification. We are excited about the opportunity that this partnership will bring to their customers and cannot wait for what is to come,” Ong further added.
