Tokenized real-world assets platform Backed and Layer 2 blockchain Lisk have announced a strategic partnership to accelerate RWA adoption across emerging markets. The collaboration will leverage Backed’s expertise in RWA and Lisk’s (LSK) blockchain technology to unlock financial opportunities.
“This partnership aligns perfectly with our vision of democratizing access to financial services through blockchain technology,” said Erwan Mismaque, head of on-chain finance at Lisk. The integration with the Optimism Superchain will enhance accessibility and scalability, benefiting individuals and businesses in emerging economies.
Lisk’s L2 technology allows real-world applications to come on-chain on the Ethereum network, offering broader interoperability. New projects using Backed’s tokenization infrastructure can receive up to $100,000 in grants through Lisk’s Blockchain Incubation Hub, which supports African entrepreneurs.
This partnership aims to empower regions with high growth potential, marking a significant step towards democratizing financial services globally.
