Crypto Real Estate AG wants to combine real estate and blockchain technology with its token called SwissRealCoin. The tokens are to be backed by a portfolio of real estate. With the help of blockchain technology, the startup wants to make the management of real estate more efficient and transparent. Crypto Real Estate was founded by Brigitte Luginbühl and Yauhen Yakimovich.

With the new board members Prof. Dr. Thorsten Hens and Dr. Christoph Caviezel, Crypto Real Estate gains "further access to a broad network in addition to a lot of real estate and behavioral finance expertise," says Luginbühl.

Caviezel has been CEO of the Mobimo Group, one of the largest listed Swiss real estate companies, since October 1, 2008. Previously, he headed the real estate division of SBB and was CEO of the Real Estate Switzerland division of Intershop AG. "Combining the great potential of blockchain and crypto technology with the hitherto traditional real estate business is my motivation to support Crypto Real Estate AG as a member of the Board of Directors," says Caviezel.

Hens is a professor at the Institute for Banking and Finance (IBF) at the University of Zurich. He runs the Center for Urban & Real Estate Management (CUREM), which includes the REIDA real estate database.
