Scott Grayson, former chief sales officer at R3, has joined the blockchain services firm AlphaPoint as a senior vice president for institutional sales.
Grayson will be working with large institutions like banks, brokerages, exchanges and private equity firms that want to tokenize assets such as real estate, private equity, securities and loans on a global scale, he said. Negotiations with a number of banks, real estate and private equity firms are underway, he added.
“AlphaPoint presented me with an opportunity I found very exciting,” Grayson told CoinDesk. “They are really helping people make illiquid assets liquid and move the markets.”
