Geneva – January 24, 2022 - WISeKey International Holding Ltd. (“WISeKey,” SIX: WIHN / Nasdaq: WKEY), a leading global Semi-conductor, AI and IoT company, today announced that its CEO, Carlos Moreira is scheduled to participate in two panel discussions at the Blockchain Conference “Trends in the World of NFTs and Crypto” presented by Maxim Group LLC and hosted by M-Vest, on Thursday, January 27, starting at 12:00 noon ET (6:00 pm CET).

Specifically, Mr. Moreira will participate in the following panel discussions:

• 12:00 noon ET: Go to market strategies panel - moderated by Allen Klee, research analyst at Maxim Group
• 1:30 pm ET: Crypto mining panel - moderated by Matthew Galinko, research analyst at Maxim Group

Mr. Moreira’s discussion will focus on the WISeKey NFT platform which is secured by WISeKey’s various security technologies enabling the authentication of digital identity based NFTs, physical objects as well as digital assets, in a safe end-to-end process. Users are in full control of their WISeID NFT and other NFTs must request access to identity information so WISeID NFTs users can decide by themselves what level of information they wish to share, thus keeping full control.

Mr. Moreira added, “As our digital lives become increasingly digitalized, Metaverse will leverage the advantages of the internet to establish a virtual world for its users. Businesses and communities will depend on users’ digital identities to manage their assets. WISeKey’s approach to the Metaverse is to provide safe infrastructure identity services based on blockchain technologies for a wide range of users, including individuals, corporations and government institutions.”

The event will consist of virtual panels with executive management from several companies in the cryptocurrency sector. Areas of focus include: how the supply chain shortage and China’s ban on cryptocurrency are impacting and shaping the market for miners, and how next-generation miners approach environmental, social and governance (ESG) criteria. For NFTs, the conference will address market opportunities and development, strategies relating to high-end versus collectibles, and keys to success.
