Middle East Investor Network Welcomes 3iQ as Official Partner

The Middle East Investor Network is pleased to announce that 3iQ, a global pioneer in digital asset investment solutions, has joined the network as an official sponsor.

Founded in 2012, 3iQ has a strong record of firsts in digital asset investing, including becoming the first regulated Digital Asset Investment Fund Manager in Canada in 2017 and launching the Middle East's first exchange-listed fund with Bitcoin as the underlying asset on Nasdaq Dubai in 2021. The firm has continued at that pace since, launching the world's first ETH staking ETF and, more recently, the first Canadian commercial bank-backed actively managed ETF. 3iQ is a subsidiary of Coincheck Group N.V., a NASDAQ-listed holding company based in the Netherlands.

For GCC allocators, digital assets have moved on from a yes-or-no allocation question to one of architecture, how much exposure to take, through what structure, and how to manage it once it is on the books. As family offices and institutional LPs across the region build out their frameworks for custody, counterparty risk and regulatory navigation, the presence of a manager with 3iQ's track record gives our community a credible reference point for those conversations, particularly as digital assets are increasingly viewed not just as a return driver but as a hedge against dollar dependency and geopolitical friction.

As part of this partnership, 3iQ will host a Private Boardroom at ALTInvest in Dubai this September, titled Digital Assets in the Institutional Portfolio – Beyond the Hype, Into the Architecture. The session will bring leading family offices and institutional LPs together to examine how exposure is being sized, how custody and counterparty risk are managed, and how the GCC's evolving regulatory framework is shaping the way digital assets are used as both a return driver and a hedge.
