The Porini Foundation is a Swiss-based non-profit organization dedicated to bridging the gap between innovative technology and nature conservation. Founded by experts in wildlife biology, blockchain technology, and sustainable business, its mission is to support climate and nature conservation projects by leveraging disruptive technologies, particularly zero-carbon blockchain solutions, to align with the UN's Sustainable Development Goals.
The foundation's flagship initiative is Nature Collectibles, the first global marketplace for NFTs for Conservation (NFTCs). This platform allows individuals to purchase digital collectibles that are directly linked to real-world conservation projects in protected areas. Each collectible represents a specific species, and 100% of the proceeds go directly to funding conservation efforts, with the foundation covering all transaction fees. This creates a transparent and direct funding channel for vital conservation work.

REVEL Moments is a live, virtual storytelling platform that aims to create authentic connections between athletes and their fans. The company's mission is to go beyond the on-field persona and showcase the "human behind the athlete" by hosting curated, interactive events where sports figures can share untold stories and personal experiences in an intimate setting.
The core of REVEL's service is its live, professionally moderated virtual events. These are not typical interviews; they are interactive experiences where fan input helps shape the content. Fans can submit questions beforehand and engage with the athlete and other attendees through a live chat, with some even getting the opportunity to join the virtual stage. This model provides a unique form of fan engagement that is more personal and unscripted than traditional media appearances. The platform serves a wide range of athletes, from retired legends to current professional and student-athletes.
Tickets for REVEL's events are issued as NFTs on the Hedera network, allowing fans to own a digital collectible that represents their participation in a unique experience.
The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC) provides post-trade clearing and settlement services that ensure the stability and efficiency of trading activity. As one of the premier financial market infrastructures over the past 50 years, DTCC processes trillions of dollars in securities transactions daily, offering a range of services that automate, centralize, and standardize the processing of financial transactions to mitigate risk and reduce costs.
DTCC’s Digital Assets is a business unit dedicated to bridging the gap between traditional financial infrastructure and the emerging digital asset ecosystem. Its key services include the DTCC Digital Launchpad, an open ecosystem for collaboration on digital asset adoption, DTCC ComposerX, an end-to-end platform for managing the entire lifecycle of digital assets, and the Collateral AppChain, which provides scalable, tokenized collateral management.
As a founding premier member of the Linux Foundation's LF Decentralized Trust alongside Hedera, DTCC is actively involved in shaping the future of open-source, decentralized technologies.
Trustury, developed by Meeco, is a specialized platform designed to enhance the transparency and auditability of tokenized assets on the Hedera blockchain network, particularly those focused on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) criteria. It functions as an open-source interface that enables users to manage, visualize, and securely share trusted information associated with tokens and decentralized identifiers (DIDs) on the Hedera network. The platform's primary role is to support the growth and adoption of Hedera's Guardian, a modular open-source solution for creating highly auditable and compliant tokenization workflows.
It provides a public-facing dashboard or "explorer" that displays tokens from across the Hedera ecosystem, allowing stakeholders to drill down into a token’s provenance and verify its adherence to specific standards or policies, such as ESG requirements.
Trustury integrates deeply with Hedera's native services, using the Hedera Token Service (HTS) to fetch token details and its DID method for identity management. By providing clear visualization tools and a consistent mechanism for users to interact with Guardian-based assets, Trustury serves as essential infrastructure for building trusted, auditable, and sustainable digital economies on Hedera.
