From Pilots to Production in The New Era of Tokenized Finance with Tal Elyashiv of SPiCE VC

Today's guest is Tal Elyashiv, Co-founder and Managing Partner at SPiCE VC. Tal joins Emerj's Nick Gertsch to explore how tokenization is moving from pilot programs into institutional-scale deployment — and what that means for settlement infrastructure, governance, and enterprise AI strategy in regulated financial systems. They discuss the real signals of production readiness, where AI is generating measurable ROI today (from compliance monitoring to customer operations), and why identity verification and human-in-the-loop controls are becoming mission-critical as AI-driven fraud accelerates.
