About Himalaya Capital Exchange: Global Tour to unleash blockchain led paradigm shift in Capital Markets
Speakers:
Arifa Khan, CEO will present Himalaya - Capital Exchange
Arifa Khan, a former investment banker with Credit Suisse and UBS has embarked on her global Himalaya Capital Exchange tour to disrupt traditional Investment Banking industry with Blockchain and Smart Contract led Fintech Innovation. She is Ethereum India Partner.Through the DGCAMP platform, she intends to bring transparency to the global capital market ecosystem which would empower both asset issuers and investors to discover and conduct transactions in a transparent manner. This would shake up the $66 trillion-dollar global securities market backed by cozy investment bankers.The innovation would usher a beginning of a new era with no role for intermediaries. The platform would knit a core blockchain led infrastructure that would open immense possibilities - Digital IPO, Start-ups raising Venture and Private Equity capital, Corporate Bond Issuance, M&A’s and Cross-Border Transactions, Governments issuing Treasuries and other infrastructure bonds – that without paying a hefty fee to Investment Banks!The technology driven platform would open a channel for the best minds in Asset Management and Investment Banking industry to design innovative applications adding value to both investors and capital seekers. This would be a Google, Apple moment for the Financial Services Industry! And an Uber moment for Investment Banking! Arifa had a successful tour Sep-Dec 2017 : Dubai, Singapore, Hong Kong, Beijing, Shanghai, Kiev, Brussels, Paris , Seoul, Mexico, Davos, Zug, Chennai, Macau, Kualalumpur. She has been meeting Bitcoin and Blockchain community, potential investors, market participants, strategic partners and potential team members in order to build a user community for Capital Coin.Investment Banks and Trading Exchanges across the world are demonstrating their interest in these technologies with super disruptive potential.Arifa Khan speaking at various Blockchain conferences around teh world, 2017 & 2018.Blockchain World Showcase - Dates - January 201812-21 April India

This series is a gathering of “thoughtful, iconoclastic blockchain enthusiasts” from around the world who share a common interest in how can we solve problems with decentralized solutions for sustainable development through global innovation. Our vision is ambitious, which is nothing less than to reshape the entire way we think about decentralized development and growth.
Zero Field Labs, Fintech Storm and Himalaya Labs are joining forces with some leading lights in Asia to bring disruptive blockchain platforms to capital markets and financial securities industry (stocks and bonds) which is estimated at USD85 trillion, with over USD3 trillion of trading daily.All blockchain disrupters, inventors, ICOs, Cryptocurrencies, Tokens who want to present can get in touch with us. Team@Himalayalabs.comThis event is brought to you by DGCAMP - HimalayaWe are mighty thrilled to be presenting Himalaya ICO - DGCAMP for the blockchain cryptocurrency community.Read more on our ground-breaking innovation DGCAMP that will break the bank!https://medium.com/@misskhan/what-is-dgcamp-2a6fae4cf699
Two years since invention, Ethereum has already disrupted one industry big time. Venture Capital and traditional equity funding. Now for those naysayers who say tokens are Ethereum's killer app, we will prove them wrong!Here's yet another disruptive solutionLadies and Gentlemen - presenting DGCAMP to you!DGCAMP is potentially one of the biggest real world applications for Blockchain. DGCAMP takes direct aim at investment banks and intermediaries. DGCAMP can raise capital for anyone without the need for investment banks and intermediaries. DGCAMP envisages a smart contract architecture replacing the manual processes involved in investment banking, in the issuance of corporate equity and debt securities — processes characterised by opacity and high fees. (Read our preliminary paper on http://himalayalabs.com/Himalaya-Executive-Summary2.pdf ) "Intermediaries in complex markets thrive on “the theory of opacity” and deliberately propagate the theory to further their own interests. The theory simply states that opacity of a process attracts intermediaries, and the more the opacity of a system or process, the more the intermediary can take away from the buyer or seller surplus. DGCAMP aims to do away with opacity in capital markets." - Arifa Khan, Founder Himalaya Labs — July 2017 Decentralised Global Capital Markets Platform ( DGCAMP ) is a new-age architecture where investors of capital and seekers of capital can interact freely, trustlessly and with minimum friction. The platform can operate with and without intermediaries. DGCAMP — A definition:DGCAMP is a blockchain and smart-contract driven platform where issuers (public and private firms, governments, non-profit foundations) can access a broad class of primary market investors (both institutional and retail), complete a variety of automated transactions and processes (such as book building, auctions, syndications, dividend distributions) and can issue a broad array of digital assets to investors. Investors of every type, jurisdiction and financial status can use the platform to learn about investment opportunities across the globe, their regulatory aspects, risks and expected returns, to access due diligence reports, and to invest directly without having to go through intermediaries. A secondary market layer with buyers, sellers, arbitrageurs can easily complement this system. The system can first be envisaged as a single-country system and then extended to a multi-country global marketplace.Capital allocation will be made in a cryptographically secure, quick, efficient, trustless way.

Benefits of DGCAMP:Disintermediation of Investment Banking by a Digital Asset Issuance Platform:A Smart Contract Architecture can replace everything an investment bank does in securities issuance — book building, IPO pricing, algorithm-based allotment of digitised assets to various subscribers, accepting payments and issuing digital securities, custody of digitised assets Cost saving, for example:Taking Away IPO fees of 7–10%De-risking of issuance process :Eliminating counter-party and settlement risksPost-issue management of investor base and performance reportingDigital coupon and dividend distributionGlobal Open Access Trust-less Platform for direct interaction between Investors and Capital-seekersGlobal efficient capital flows between countriesPotential App Market Place for Asset Management Industry and intermediaries to build on our Core PlatformReputation scoring of investors and issuers enabled over timePotential platform for independent service providers to sell Research, Due Diligence, Legal and Regulatory ProductsDecentralisation of Access to Capital!Decentralisation of Innovation!“As a professional provider of investment advisory services, including, for example, management of liquidity funds on stock exchanges, we are very interested in lowering the transaction fees as those direct expenses paid to different counterparties like DMA brokers, custody etc lowers the returns for our customers. So we are very interested in such an exchange that would give us the reasonable safety within the regulated scope and good fees to more bigger returns.” - Alexander Zitsev, Founder, Raison AI"As if online book building/ trading was not enough, the Crypto Economy, with a much more vast array of possibilities is likely to overhaul the way in which primary and secondary capital markets operate. To pick just a couple of aspects that are 'ripe targets’ - the current, less than optimum allocation and settlement protocols are suddenly looking almost archaic, highly inefficient and often described as bordering on being unfair."- Maneesh Malhotra, Capital Coin ICO Adviser, Senior Debt Capital Market Specialist, having worked with HSBC for almost 2 decades in India and South East Asia, opened new currency and geographical markets for a vast array of capital raising entities, while maintaining a deep interaction with regulatory bodies in different jurisdictions. He now works at a boutique Corporate Finance Advisory outfit in Singapore, covering Asia Pacific region.DGCAMP serves as a substitute to the current manually-intensive, time-bound and costly processes involved in the issuance of real world securities for corporates, governments, and non-profits.About Ms Arifa Khan, Founder Himalaya Labs, Capital CoinArifa Khan is Ethereum India Partner.Arifa's latest project is setting up a Decentralised Capital Markets Platform for Initial Public Offerings through a tokenised platform for securities.

India's First Ever Cryptocurrency Fair “Himalaya Crypto Summit” arrives at Mumbai for ‘Blockchain India Week’ 2018 ft. Nick Szabo
LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM, May 13, 2018 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Himalaya Labs Ltd. is hosting India’s first-ever Blockchain & Cryptocurrencies event – the Himalaya Crypto Summit – in Mumbai on May 25th- 26th, 2018 during the Blockchain India Week, featuring global crypto pioneer Nick Szabo. Himalaya Labs is a Blockchain venture owned by Ms. Arifa Khan, a crypto pioneer and the India Partner of Ethereum Foundation. She is an IIT Madras graduate, a Wharton MBA, and an ex investment banker, who has been evangelising Blockchain in India actively since 2015. After facilitating numerous successful Blockchain Summits across the world including Ethereum India Summit 2017, Ms Khan is now bringing the mega event to Mumbai.The first-ever Crypto Summit in India will provide an inside peek on the raging worldwide phenomenon of Cryptocurrencies, views of luminaries on technological progress, challenges, dispensations from governments the world over, regulation and what it means for the future of crypto and the common man in India. The main summit on 25 May will focus on Blockchain applications, and their mass appeal in India. It will benefit industry leaders, CEOs, CTOs and CIOs, the financial services sector, regulatory bodies, policy makers, start-ups, and researchers and will host several keynotes and panels with over 30 speakers including from NSE, SBI, and Global Financial Access. Many Indian players have tested the usage of Blockchain in areas of Trade Finance, Cross-border Payments, Bill Discounting, Supply chain financing, Loyalty and Digital Identity areas. A networking platform with global pioneers will accelerate India’s learning curve.The Cryptocurrencies summit on 26 May throws open a unique and exclusive learning opportunity for corporates to educate their teams on the technology behind bitcoin, ether and other Cryptocurrencies, for wealth management firms to educate their clients on this new asset class, for crypto enthusiasts to trade in crypto, for the software developers, students, researchers to learn the fundamentals, and for Indian ICO aspirants to learn the practicalities of launching an ICO to raise funds. Global crypto investors, CTOs and inventors of crypto protocols will educate the audiences on nuances of creating and running self-sustaining cryptocurrency platforms, token business models and how these can be beneficially applied and integrated in various industry domains.The participants will have a chance to get educated on real Blockchain projects and meet the pioneers behind these revolutionary businesses over two days. Himalaya Labs would be presenting their revolutionary next generation stock exchange platform - Himalaya Capital Exchange, a crypto NASDAQ that runs entirely on smart contracts- for entrepreneurs around the world to raise capital from global investors in seconds, for legally compliant shares and bonds.“Blockchain is the next new wave in technology and everyone, from governments to the common man, stands a chance to benefit by riding this wave. India can become a global resource provider on Blockchain, as we are the biggest producers and exporters of engineering talent and computer scientists which is a prerequisite to technical prowess for making India a global Blockchain hub. We are reimagining capital markets and paying a tribute to Smart Contracts Pioneer Nick Szabo with our blue print for a next generation smart-contract run marketplace that deals in millions of dollars in securities ” says Founder & CEO of Himalaya Capital Exchange Ms. Arifa Khan.Crypto economy, which was valued at around $20 billion at the end of 2016, ballooned close to $800 billion by the end of 2017. Though Blockchain and Bitcoin adoption has seen a lot of traction in India since 2016 when Ms Khan hosted crypto pioneers like Ethereum’s Vitalik Buterin in India, and conducted hackathons in efforts to catalyse the ecosystem, the industry and investors are yet to grasp the fundamentals of this technology and the interconnectedness between blockchain and crypto in a useful way. There is a legitimate need and a gap in educating the common man as well as the influencers on these new technologies. The summit aims to bridge the gap.Mr. Nick Szabo, a renowned cryptographer, computer scientist, legal scholar and the pioneer of ‘Smart Contracts’, who is among the most celebrated speakers in the summit, says: “The imposition of capital controls is a disaster for a modern trade-driven economy, a catastrophe which, however, digital technology and in particular the digital currency bitcoin, has the potential to mitigate.” He adds that “Decentralised marketplaces are the ultimate promise of Blockchain, which will have the most dramatic impact on society and economy.”The summit will bring together the world's foremost experts, innovators and investors in the fields of Cryptography and Artificial Intelligence (AI) such as Nick Szabo, Eddy Travia, John Puttick, Arun Sharma, Sudin Baraokar, S V R Srinivas, Marc Pilkington, Sandris Murins, Rahul Bhasin, CTOs of NSE, SBI, L&T Infotech, IT secretary of Govt of Maharashtra, and legal experts from Amarchand Mangaldas, Khaitan & Co, Nishit Desai. Government of Maharashtra is collaborating with Himalaya Labs to host Ethereum Hackathon in India, and has provided real administrative challenges for Ethereum developers to solve such as - tracking education subsidies to payment of college fees through smart contracts. To book tickets, visit the website: http://capitalexchange.techAbout Himalaya Labs LtdHimalaya Labs is a Blockchain venture creating the world's first decentralised capital markets platform for investors and issuers, where smart contracts do the job of investment banks and intermediaries. A traditional stock exchange is replaced by an algorithm-driven marketplace where algorithms guide the listing price, and the token economy participants regulate, curate and monitor the risks and rewards of companies accessing public capital through ISTOs “Initial Security Token Offerings”. The token marketplace plays the role of investment banks, cutting out the 10% IPO fees. Founder & CEO Arifa Khan is an IIT Madras graduate and a Wharton MBA with a background in investment banking and Cryptocurrencies.

About DGCAMP & Capital Coin
Read our preliminary paper on Decentralised Global Capital Markets Platform (DGCAMP) here (https://medium.com/@misskhan/what-is-dgcamp-2a6fae4cf699). http://himalayalabs.com/Himalaya-Executive-Summary2.pdf
What is DGCAMP ?
https://medium.com/@misskhan/what-is-dgcamp-2a6fae4cf699
DGCAMP is potentially one of the biggest real world applications for Blockchain. DGCAMP envisages a smart contract architecture replacing the manual processes involved in investment banking, in the issuance of corporate equity and debt securities — processes characterised by opacity and high fees.
(Read our preliminary paper (http://himalayalabs.com/Himalaya-Executive-Summary2.pdf))
DGCAMP aims to do away with opacity in capital markets. Decentralised Global Capital Markets Platform ( DGCAMP ) is a new-age architecture where investors of capital and seekers of capital can interact freely, trustlessly and with minimum friction. The platform can operate with and without intermediaries. DGCAMP — A definition: DGCAMP is a blockchain and smart-contract driven platform where issuers (public and private firms, governments, non-profit foundations) can access a broad class of primary market investors (both institutional and retail), complete a variety of automated transactions and processes (such as book building, auctions, syndications, dividend distributions) and can issue a broad array of digital assets to investors. Investors of every type, jurisdiction and financial status can use the platform to learn about investment opportunities across the globe, their regulatory aspects, risks and expected returns, to access due diligence reports, and to invest directly without having to go through intermediaries. A secondary market layer with buyers, sellers, arbitrageurs can easily complement this system. The system can first be envisaged as a single-country system and then extended to a multi-country global marketplace. Capital allocation will be made in a cryptographically secure, quick, efficient, trustless way.
Decentralised Capital Markets Platform for Digitally Represented Assets (DGCAMP)
Benefits of DGCAMP:
Disintermediation of Investment Banking by a Digital Asset Issuance Platform:
A Smart Contract Architecture can replace everything an investment bank does in securities issuance — book building, IPO pricing, algorithm-based allotment of digitised assets to various subscribers, accepting payments and issuing digital securities, custody of digitised assets Cost saving, for example:
Taking Away IPO fees of 7–10%
De-risking of issuance process :
Eliminating counter-party and settlement risksPost-issue management of investor base and performance reporting
Digital coupon and dividend distribution
Global Open Access Trust-less Platform for direct interaction between Investors and Capital-seekers
Global efficient capital flows between countries
Potential App Market Place for Asset Management Industry and intermediaries to build on our Core Platform
Reputation scoring of investors and issuers enabled over time
Potential platform for independent service providers to sell Research, Due Diligence, Legal and Regulatory Products
Decentralisation of Access to Capital!
Decentralisation of Innovation!
“As a professional provider of investment advisory services, including, for example, management of liquidity funds on stock exchanges, we are very interested in lowering the transaction fees as those direct expenses paid to different counterparties like DMA brokers, custody etc lowers the returns for our customers. So we are very interested in such an exchange that would give us the reasonable safety within the regulated scope and good fees to more bigger returns.” - Alexander Zitsev, Founder, Raison AI
"As if online book building/ trading was not enough, the Crypto Economy, with a much more vast array of possibilities is likely to overhaul the way in which primary and secondary capital markets operate. To pick just a couple of aspects that are 'ripe targets’ - the current, less than optimum allocation and settlement protocols are suddenly looking almost archaic, highly inefficient and often described as bordering on being unfair."- Maneesh Malhotra, Capital Coin ICO Adviser, Senior Debt Capital Market Specialist, having worked with HSBC for almost 2 decades in India and South East Asia, opened new currency and geographical markets for a vast array of capital raising entities, while maintaining a deep interaction with regulatory bodies in different jurisdictions. He now works at a boutique Corporate Finance Advisory outfit in Singapore, covering Asia Pacific region.
DGCAMP serves as a substitute to the current manually-intensive, time-bound and costly processes involved in the issuance of real world securities for corporates, governments, and non-profits.

The theory simply states that opacity of a process attracts intermediaries, and the more the opacity of a system or process, the more the intermediary can take away from the buyer or seller surplus. DGCAMP aims to do away with opacity in capital markets." - Arifa Khan, Founder Himalaya Labs — July 2017 Decentralised Global Capital Markets Platform ( DGCAMP ) is a new-age architecture where investors of capital and seekers of capital can interact freely, trustlessly and with minimum friction. The platform can operate with and without intermediaries. DGCAMP — A definition:DGCAMP is a blockchain and smart-contract driven platform where issuers (public and private firms, governments, non-profit foundations) can access a broad class of primary market investors (both institutional and retail), complete a variety of automated transactions and processes (such as book building, auctions, syndications, dividend distributions) and can issue a broad array of digital assets to investors. Investors of every type, jurisdiction and financial status can use the platform to learn about investment opportunities across the globe, their regulatory aspects, risks and expected returns, to access due diligence reports, and to invest directly without having to go through intermediaries. A secondary market layer with buyers, sellers, arbitrageurs can easily complement this system. The system can first be envisaged as a single-country system and then extended to a multi-country global marketplace.Capital allocation will be made in a cryptographically secure, quick, efficient, trustless way.
