For this episode of METACO TALKS, we have partnered with The Network Forum – the global community for the custody, settlement and post-trade industry – and we streamed it live exclusively for the attendees of THE NETWORK FORUM VIRTUAL ANNUAL MEETING 2021. Our guest for the episode is Maxime de Guillebon, CEO of Zodia Custody – the Standard Chartered-backed digital asset custodian for institutional investors. Maxime is based in London, and previous to his appointment as CEO of Zodia, he worked in SC Ventures, the innovation arm of Standard Chartered. Maxime has worked for the Standard Chartered Group for 14 years in a variety of roles in transaction banking and digital channels, working out of Vietnam, Singapore and Dubai. Among other topics, we we discussed: - the business opportunity behind institutional grade custody for cryptocurrencies and digital assets - innovating at high speed while having the benefits of having a Tier 1 institution behind  - the digital asset partner ecosystem – fragmentation, cooperation and orchestrating the value chain - enabling institutions to access the DeFi market.
