ABOUT TOKENOVATE
Tokenovate is a next-generation post-trade automation platform for derivatives and SFTs. Our unified, data-agnostic solution ensures automated and seamless transaction processing across all asset classes, products and market infrastructures — no matter what you trade or where your assets are held.
By operationalising and embedding industry standards such as the Common Domain Model (CDM) directly into our platform, we harness the power of blockchain, smart contracts and tokenisation to drive automation, interoperability, and efficiency across capital markets.
Founded in 2022, we are a fully funded UK-based start-up in the early commercialisation stage. Our team blends deep technical expertise with a pragmatic approach to enterprise blockchain adoption.
