STO SUMMIT 2024 Tokyo will be held on August 26, 2024, from 12:00 to 19:00 UTC (GMT) via Zoom Webinar. 
Security Token Offering (STO) refers to the distribution of blockchain-based tokens representing ownership of tangible or intangible assets, ranging from bonds, stocks, and real estate to carbon credits, artwork, and company equity. STOs are similar to Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs), but the key difference is that tokens issued in an STO are considered securities and are subject to financial regulations. 
As of June 2024, the global market capitalization of security tokens stands at $39.5 billion. The asset classes issued include stocks at $17.14 billion (55%), bonds at $11.797 billion (38%), funds at $1.052 billion (3%), asset-backed securities (ABS) at $915 million (3%), and real estate at $259 million (1%). A total of 603 security tokens have been issued, with real estate comprising 488 tokens (80%), stocks 48 tokens (7%), bonds 42 tokens (7%), funds 25 tokens (4%), and ABS 9 tokens (1%).

In Japan, the total issuance of security tokens reached $636.8 million (97.6 billion yen) by the end of 2023, marking a 5.8-fold increase from the previous year. It accounts for 16% of the annual issuance in Japan’s stock market and 31% of the annual issuance in the listed REIT market, highlighting the growing significance of security tokens in the capital market.

Attendees will also have the opportunity to request individual meetings with these global speakers by applying through the STO SUMMIT website. The speakers have already outlined their agendas and are eager to meet with interested companies. 
Augustin Jiang, Secretary-General of ISTA (International Security Token Association) and organizer of STO SUMMIT 2024 Tokyo shared the purpose of the event: 
“ISTA, founded in November 2023 as a non-profit organization, represents the interests of security token-related companies worldwide. Due to recent natural disasters in Japan, we have transitioned the event to Zoom Webinars but plan to host it globally. K-ISTA has already been established in Korea, and we hope to see similar committees formed in other countries. Currently, the market cap of security tokens is 4% of the crypto market. To drive the growth of security tokens, we must overcome regulatory and technological challenges. Global collaboration is essential, and we hope that the STO SUMMIT 2024 Tokyo Zoom Webinar will foster productive partnerships with financial institutions and companies worldwide.” 
Participation in the STO SUMMIT 2024 Tokyo Zoom Webinar is by invitation only from STO SUMMIT sponsors. To register, please enter the invitation code “Market periodical” in the final comments section.
