🚀🔍 Crypto-focused capital firm Paradigm announced the launch of Policy Lab today! This platform, where academics, policy experts, lawyers and technology experts come together, will focus on critical issues facing the crypto industry. 🌐📚

🎯 Policy Lab, led by Brendan Malone and Rodrigo Seira, aims to shape crypto policies. “By launching the Policy Lab, we are doubling down on our policy efforts and aiming to fill the gap in policy discourse by delivering high-quality research to guide critical policy decisions,” Rodrigo said. 🧪🔬

🎓 As part of the launch, Policy Lab announced its Academic Scholarship Program and two start-up fellows. Harvard's Primavera De Filippi and Columbia's Agostino Capponi will examine the issue of "regulatory equivalence." 🏛️📖
