Temasek Holdings is one of the largest sovereign wealth funds on the planet, with nearly $300 billion in equity holdings. However, the firm began as an outlet for the Government of Singapore’s massive investments into the infrastructure and economy of the small island nation. This report examines how the Government of Singapore founded and then leveraged Temasek to strategically invest in the development of the nation’s economy and catalyze the growth of one of the most prosperous nations on the planet in the process.]]>

0 Lessons Learned from Israel, The Startup Nation /erickbrimen/lessons-learned-from-israel-the-startup-nation lessonslearnedfromisrael-180620131500
Israel’s growth was the result of a unique amalgamation of conditions, some replicable, and some not. There are many factors unique to Israel which do not lend themselves to replication: Massive amounts of aid from extant developed nations (especially the United States), unheard-of levels of high-skilled immigration, a uniquely overdeveloped military research complex, and a total inability to trade with any directly bordering nation because of fractious geopolitics. However, the unique aspect of Israel that many commentators argue is the single biggest factor in Israel’s success can be summed up in a single Hebrew word: chutzpah. These will each be elaborated upon in turn below. However, there are also a few replicable lessons to be gleaned from a review of Israel’s growth. These include the importance of fiscal austerity, deregulation where it matters, research & development, and the importance of a large state-backed, state-funded venture capital effort to jump-start highspeed growth as Israel has seen. These, too, will be elaborated upon below.]]>

Property registries are a natural fit for blockchain technology, which has led many blockchain-focused firms to begin developing blockchain-based property registry systems. Those select firms which have made substantial progress on this project will be outlined in detail here in no particular order (Chromaway, Propy, Ubiquity, Bitfury, Consensys). Particular attention will be paid to how the technology works as well as the potential for this technology to be harnessed to its fullest possible capacity as the foundational property registry for new or developing jurisdictions.]]>
