Financing sustainability and solving challenging macroeconomic problems usually involves financing new technology and new ventures. Financing new technology and new ventures often do not fit within the mandate of institutional and professional investors due to a mismatch in risk profile (unproven technology), deal size (too small) in contrast to the relatively high administrative burden, too few high-quality investment opportunities (diversification) and the fact that the pool of investors is somewhat disorganized. As a result, after validation of the business models, startups often find themselves in a critical valley of death where little or no funding is available.

To promote and accelerate sustainable financing, The 2Tokens Usecase Next Generation Capital has developed the Vertical® structure as a proof-of-concept for a new, efficient financing structure for early-stage ventures in which the use of tokens makes it possible to set up financing on a larger scale and cost more efficiently and making an investment accessible to a greater diversity of investors.

Vertical®
A Vertical® is a new way of investing in a theme-based basket of ventures, offered as one bundled investment proposition and subsequently listed as separate security tokens on a regulated secondary market, using standardised documentation, standardised issuing practices, and complying with a standardised framework of investor requirements.

Phase 2 Next Generation Capital
During Phase 1 of Next Generation Capital the Vertical® model was developed and approved by the regulators. In Phase 2 of Next Generation capital we will actually bring the first Vertical® to the market. For this a more detailed whitepaper will be developed for the governance and legal documentation of the funded startups, the token economics will be structured and the Investor readiness of the Vertical® will be tested.

Event: Open tables
If you want to actively participate in this use case, we welcome your attendance. In three sessions we will dive into the details and work through all technicalities using the wisdom of the 2Tokens community.
