Kadena Leads Digital Asset Innovation at Davos 2025

Kadena’s Chief Business Officer, Annelise Osborne, author of “From Hoodies to Suits,” will be speaking at the exclusive 2025 Web3 Investor Gathering, co-hosted by Blockchain Founders Capital and Animoca Brands. On the sidelines of the World Economic Forum, attendees of this invitation-only event include regulators, founders, and investors who will merge in Switzerland to explore the future of Web3, blockchain technology, and AI.

Alignment on the Path Forward

Osborne emphasized the importance of different sides of the industry coming together to align on how to move the technology forward:

“Every angle of the industry needs to come together to propel the technology forward. That’s what Davos is all about – builders, regulators, and investors are merging in Switzerland for one of the most important conversations of the year. Kadena will be right there amongst it all.”

The event will feature discussions with industry leaders such as Aya, Sigma Capital, Unstoppable Domains, Polymesh, Gate Exchange, Filecoin Foundation, and many others.

Uncovering a Balance Between Innovation and Regulation

There is a delicate balance in creating safeguard rails where the end users of technology feel safe but founders feel confident to build. We need to aim for a clear middle ground here. That middle ground is uncovered in environments like Davos. To that extent, Osborne added:

“Clear and thoughtful digital asset regulation isn’t just about compliance — it’s about creating an environment that fosters growth and trust. Davos is the perfect forum to engage in these critical conversations.”

Osborne’s experience at the intersection of traditional finance and digital assets will be integral to guiding future conversations and creating the path forward for the technology. Her invitation to Davos speaks to the industry’s vote of confidence in her ability to lead these discussions.
