-- In Zurich, Switzerland’s financial capital and a global wealth hub where classical heritage meets modern finance, DREAM ASCEND successfully hosted its Western Europe Strategic Exchange. The event convened high-net-worth individuals, family offices, institutional investors, hospitality group representatives, and leading practitioners in blockchain and Real World Assets (RWA) from Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and North America. Centered on the theme “Reconstructing the Digital Financial Architecture of Global Cultural & Tourism Assets,” the forum featured in-depth dialogue and strategic engagement.
The atmosphere was dynamic yet analytical. Participants broadly agreed that cultural and tourism assets are approaching a historic inflection point—transitioning from traditional “consumption attributes” to financialized assets characterized by clear rights confirmation, liquidity, and profit distribution. The RWA + AI–driven global tourism financial infrastructure developed by DREAM ASCEND was widely recognized as one of the most forward-looking and practically implementable models within this structural transformation.
Market Consensus: A Trillion-Dollar Digitalization Window Has Arrived
According to the latest data from MarketsandMarkets, the global luxury tourism market reached approximately USD 29.8 billion in 2024 and is projected to grow to USD 278.9 billion by 2035, representing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 22.54%. Within this sector, the annual tradable valuation of hotel assets alone exceeds USD 800 billion, yet digital penetration remains below 5%.
This gap represents a structural incremental opportunity measured in trillions of dollars. Several institutional representatives noted that the post-pandemic travel rebound, increasing global asset diversification among high-net-worth individuals, and the rapid maturation of RWA infrastructure together have created a rare strategic window. As one Swiss family office principal remarked, “Over the past decade, we have sought non-correlated allocations in private equity, fine art, and real estate. For the first time, on-chain tokenization of cultural and tourism assets allows us to quantify, liquidate, and globally circulate vacation and experiential asset classes.”
DREAM ASCEND’s Core Architecture and Technological Advantages Receive Strong Recognition
During the exchange, DREAM ASCEND Founder and CEO Maria Luisa Agaton Rafael presented the platform’s core architecture and technological evolution roadmap. She emphasized that DREAM ASCEND is not merely a tokenization tool, but a comprehensive cultural and tourism financial protocol layer built on RWA logic, integrated with AI-driven decision systems and multi-chain compatibility.
The platform has completed MSB registration with the U.S. Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) (Registration No. 3100028504440) and is actively aligning with the EU’s MiCA regulatory framework as well as Southeast Asia’s VASP mechanisms, forming a dual compliance structure combining on-chain clearing and settlement with legally structured off-chain frameworks. Governance is progressively transitioning to DA DAO, where $DA token holders will possess substantive voting rights, enabling community-driven ecosystem evolution.
On the technical front, the DA-AI intelligent trading system incorporates a Dual-Relation Fusion Network that integrates short-term behavioral volatility (occupancy rates, booking dynamics) with long-term structural attributes (hotel ratings, location value, operational stability). An edge computing module enables millisecond-level response to geopolitical events, public health developments, and natural disasters. A live demonstration showed that predictive accuracy has improved by over 15% compared to traditional models, providing unprecedented dynamic decision-making capability for asset allocation.
Particularly noteworthy was DREAM ASCEND’s “real-yield closed-loop” model. Platform revenues are derived from actual hotel booking commissions (2%–8%), premium uplift generated by AI-driven revenue management systems, and operational dividends from cultural and tourism projects—rather than from capital inflows or projected yield promises. All revenue distribution is executed through smart contracts with daily on-chain automatic settlement, ensuring full transparency and auditability.
Future Vision: Nasdaq Bell and a Global Cultural & Tourism Financial Network
In the closing remarks, the European General Manager articulated that a future Nasdaq public listing represents a long-term strategic objective for DREAM ASCEND. Through sustained regulatory alignment, real-world deployment, and ecosystem expansion, the platform aims to build a global cultural and tourism financial interconnection network spanning users, traffic, assets, protocols, liquidity, and governance.
“When the Nasdaq bell rings,” he stated, “it will mark not only a new chapter for DREAM ASCEND, but also a historic moment in which trillions of dollars of legacy cultural and tourism assets enter the on-chain public market. We invite all forward-looking participants to become co-builders of this transformation.”
Conclusion
The successful convening of the Western Europe Strategic Exchange in Zurich marks a new phase in DREAM ASCEND’s European strategic expansion. As the global wave of tourism asset digitalization accelerates and the RWA + AI technology stack continues to mature, DREAM ASCEND is positioning itself—grounded in compliance, anchored by real yield, and guided by global vision—to lead the industry into the next decade.
As the conference theme declared: “A new paradigm for global cultural and tourism assets is taking shape.”
At the core of this paradigm stands DREAM ASCEND.
