Tokenization holds great potential to revolutionize funding and investment in the biotech industry, fostering growth, innovation, and patient access to therapies. Asset tokenization provides increased access to capital by broadening the investor base and democratizing investment opportunities.

This liquidity allows early-stage investors to exit their investments and reinvest, nurturing a vibrant ecosystem optimized for therapy research and development around pre-IPO biotech companies. Innovative biotech companies, especially with pre-commercial assets, should consider tokenization to enhance funding opportunities and collaborate with the digital ecosystem.
