Rachel and Lauren discuss her background beginning with her father, jolting her onto the world stage early, Brazil, and what she is currently doing on various initiatives to improve women's rights exponentially. Lauren and her team are making big moves from employment to increasing access to credit to growing women's access to land-ownership through education.The most crucial element - at least a significant pillar - is access to credit, treasury management, and building credit overtime for any entrepreneur. Especially true for women in emerging and developing markets globally that must align their business with the capital markets. Lauren recognized this in Abu Dhabi and is helping through her programs. The essential part of any entrepreneur's journey is who is there to help them when things get dark, obstacles occur, and how to overcome to become a better entrepreneur as studies from Harvard, BCG, and others have shown that women excel. As discussed with Rachel, she helps women understand how to build, grow, and develop networks.

Abu Dhabi Edition One of the most-watched programs in the Blockchain sector and has been seen by over 4-million viewers worldwide. In this segment of FINTECH.TV's Digital Asset Report, our host from Abu Dhabi, Rachel Pether, is joined by the innovative CEO of WOM Protocol and Yeay, respectively - Melanie Mohr. Melanie explains how WOM has engineered a specific blockchain-based solution for word-of-mouth value reward, tracking, and earning for creators, authenticators, and the brand itself. Therefore, the brand backs the content that has met protocol consensus with alignment for monetizing content, distribution pathways, and the fine-grained controls necessary to give users, advertisers, and humans enhanced capabilities.Rachel and Melanie discuss the pressures from click-farms, monetizing content, and the need for independence, vis-a-vis, decentralization. This reverse-engineered approach for the WOM Protocol is purpose-built for creators to capture the value they add to the world. There is decentralization - and then there is spontaneous decentralization. FINTECH.TV describes this as "Briding the Grand Canyon" with new "Oracle-based" technologies that enforce smart-contracts, which means systems much trust each other. As these systems grow to trust each other and establish these new connections, we go from interoperability to the epoch of ubiquity as the Great Reset occurs in a post-COVID world.These veterans discuss how "on-chain" and "off-chain" information flows, tokens and the experience develops as regulations evolve, security matures, and markets shift the paradigm. Melanie and Rachel had a great time on this exclusive interview on FINTECH.TV and we hope you will enjoy it just as much, learning how blockchain technology is improving the pursuit of happiness worldwide.

Abu Dhabi Edition One of the most-watched programs in the Blockchain sector and has been seen by over 4-million viewers worldwide. Join our host, Rachel Pether, on the Digital Asset Report from Abu Dhabi with Dave Chapman, Executive Director of BC Group and Co-founder of OSL. Previous investment banker (HSBC, Barclay's, Bearn Stearns, & others) and during 2012 came across the bitcoin revolution. In 2013 while Dave was in Hong Kong, he became fascinated with the decentralized nature and technology of bitcoin, and it was then when he understood what the future holds for the finance industry.Dave and his business partners understood the future of digital assets was most compelling when institutional adoption was achieved to dominate the space for those layer one providers. With the help of a strategic investor, they took control of a Honk Kong exchange call BC Group. BC Group created a wholly-owned group – OSL, which serves as a digital asset firm with the full intent to serve the financial institution and accredited investor communities. “Digital security tokens will disrupt capital markets.” – Dave Chapman, Executive DirectorMany traditional finance leaders of the Old World misunderstood the opportunity in bitcoin and decentralized technology, thinking that it wouldn’t be adopted. We are now witnessing significant jurisdictions around the world create regulations around the digital asset space (bitcoin, crypto, and security tokens). Some of the worldwide established brand names that are entering the space are, Standard Chartered, J.P. Morgan, Nomura, and TD Ameritrade. Bitcoin has validated its status as an asset class, receiving global regulatory clarity in the financial space. As well as exceptionally high-quality custodians that are providing the same level of insurance for the New World that any traditional custodian would of the Old World.
