In March 2024 Giorgio took part in a fireside chat at the DIFC Innovation Hub, the fintech and Web3 accelerator of the Dubai International Financial Centre. The session focused on the tokenization of voluntary carbon credits as a test case for regulated on-chain commodity markets.

The conversation covered the legal architecture that allows a carbon credit to cross from a traditional registry into an on-chain representation without losing its retirement status, the counterparty frameworks needed for institutional participants, and the operational realities of settling environmental transactions across the Gulf region. No official recording or press coverage was published for this session.
