In a groundbreaking move set to transform private investing, Republic, a leading investment platform for private market assets, has teamed up with the Sui Foundation to launch Sui LaunchPad. This innovative platform is designed to bring private investing on-chain, making it more accessible and efficient for developers and investors alike. The first token issuer to take advantage of this revolutionary platform will be DeLorean Labs, the web3 arm of the iconic DeLorean Motor Company.
Sui LaunchPad: A New Era for Token Sales
Sui LaunchPad, powered by Republic, offers a comprehensive solution for launching and managing token sales. It provides a seamless integration for token distribution, investor access, and regulatory compliance, ensuring a secure and streamlined process for all participants. Notably, Sui will be the first non-EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine) chain that Republic Wallet integrates with, highlighting the unique capabilities and forward-thinking nature of the Sui ecosystem.
Republic’s Commitment to Innovation
Republic’s infrastructure is perfectly suited to support the high-speed, high-volume events characteristic of token sales on the Sui blockchain. Matt Melbourne, Head of GTM at Republic, emphasized the synergy between Republic’s infrastructure and Sui’s scalability, stating, “Sui’s commitment to building scalability and speed lends itself to small transaction, high-volume events like token sales, making the Layer 1 a great match for our infrastructure.”
DeLorean Labs: The Pioneer Issuer
DeLorean Labs is an ideal choice as the first issuer on Sui LaunchPad. Known for its innovative approach and cultural significance, DeLorean Labs is set to introduce $DMC, a native token that promises to bridge the gap between web3 technology and real-world utility. This initiative follows the successful launch of DeLorean’s Time Capsule digital collectible series, which sold out and offered participants a chance to win a 2026 DeLorean EV.
Evan Kuhn, President of DeLorean Labs, expressed excitement about the new venture, saying, “While not every DeLorean fan is going to be able to buy a DeLorean EV, we want every DeLorean fan to have the opportunity to benefit from the upside of the rebirth of the DeLorean brand. As the first issuer on Sui LaunchPad, we are elated to be able to explore yet another way to create value for DeLorean fans.”
Impact on the Sui Ecosystem
The launch of Sui LaunchPad is a significant milestone for the Sui ecosystem, providing developers with unparalleled access to Republic’s vast investor base and global visibility. Jameel Khalfan, Head of Ecosystem Development at Sui Foundation, highlighted the benefits of this integration, stating, “From developers new to the ecosystem to builders currently hard at work on Sui, this integration will encourage wider participation in tokenized projects.”
