Kiran K. Garimella reposted thisKiran K. Garimella reposted this✍️ A major milestone in the doctoral journey Recently, we welcomed our University of South Florida Online DBA students to campus as they officially began the next phase of their program — the dissertation process. During this residency weekend, students met face-to-face with their dissertation committees for the first time, presented their qualifying exams, and began shaping their research proposals. These conversations mark an important transition from structured coursework to independent scholarly research. While many students joined us in Tampa, our Online DBA program can be completed 100% online, and two students participated remotely as they connected with their dissertation committees virtually. Moments like these are one of the most meaningful parts of the DBA experience — bringing our online scholars together with faculty to exchange ideas, build relationships, and begin the work that will define their doctoral research. We are excited to support this cohort as they move forward into the dissertation phase and look forward to the contributions their research will make. #USFDBA #OnlineDBA #DoctoralJourney #DissertationResearch #GoBulls

Announcing #KoreChain interoperability with public blockchains — #Ethereum, #Solana, and #Avalanche — — making KoreInside the FIRST and ONLY U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission-qualified permissioned blockchain to serve as a smart compliance routing hub across public chains, private ledgers, and institutional networks simultaneously. What does that actually mean? As our Co-Founder and CTO Kiran K. Garimella puts it, think of KoreInside's architecture as a four-layer neural system: → Application Layer — the user-facing cortex for capital market participants → Infrastructure Layer — the regulatory brainstem processing compliance signals → Blockchain Layer — the spinal cord executing through immutable consensus → AI Layer — the neural intelligence interpreting, optimizing, and predicting The result: issuers, investors, and intermediaries can now transact freely across ecosystems — with built-in #KYC, #AML, accreditation checks, smart routing, and jurisdiction-specific regulatory enforcement. Without sacrificing compliance, speed, or data integrity. For years, the promise of RWA tokenization outpaced the infrastructure to do it safely. That gap is now closed.

Kiran K. Garimella shared thisLately, it feels like everyone in capital markets is calling themselves "infrastructure." In most cases, though, what they really mean is that they do one thing well, whether that's issuance, compliance, transfer agency, trading, or something else. Look, doing one thing well is genuinely valuable. But that's not what infrastructure means if you look at the models that actually endured and scaled, like railroads, payment networks, telecom backbones, and chip foundries. Those succeeded because they were comprehensive, neutral, open to all participants, and built to make their clients successful rather than compete with them. That's the lens KoreInside is using to define what "infrastructure for the private capital markets" should actually look like: not just a single capability done well, but the full connective tissue that lets issuers, intermediaries, and investors move confidently across the entire lifecycle of a private security.

Kiran K. Garimella reposted thisKiran K. Garimella reposted thisAP Newswire is carrying our latest — and the story matters. 📡 Public companies have the NYSE. The Nasdaq. Exchanges built for distribution. Private companies have... nothing. ➡️ 🔗 That's the missing link — and KoreInside is changing it. For most private companies, distribution infrastructure has never been an option. That's starting to change. 🙌 KoreInside integrates seamlessly with leading Layer 1 and Layer 2 blockchains, creating a powerful infrastructure for regulated capital markets — opening a path that was once out of reach for the many.

Kiran K. Garimella reposted thisKiran K. Garimella reposted this💲 Why does it take months for an #issuer to receive money an investor already committed? 💲 It shouldn't. And now, it won't. KoreInside has partnered with tappengine to bring the first #stablecoin built specifically for private capital markets — live today, built directly into KorePay, running on our compliance-first, permissioned blockchain. This isn't a proof of concept. It's production-grade infrastructure. → Faster settlement. Capital moves when it's supposed to — not weeks later. → Less friction. Credit unions, community banks, and RIAs can finally participate in private markets with institutional-grade efficiency. → Zero compliance shortcuts. Every transaction runs on regulated, auditable rails — the way private markets demand. The fragmentation in this space has been costing issuers, broker-dealers, and investors real money for years. Disconnected systems. Manual processes. #Compliance gaps at every handoff. KorePay + TAPP Engine closes that gap. Public markets solved settlement a long time ago. Private markets are next. 🎥 See it in action: https://lnkd.in/eD6RWVMQ #PrivateCapitalMarkets #Stablecoin #KoreInside #KorePay #Fintech #PrivateMarkets #Infrastructure #CapitalMarkets KoreInside Oscar Jofre Jr. Kiran K.

Kiran K. Garimella shared thisThe SEC did a great job in providing a commentary that has many examples of what constitutes a security or a non-security. However, Section IV describes interesting scenarios by which a non-security may become connected with an investment contract, converting its status into a security (or not, as the case may be), or alternately, converting a security's status back to non-security. The whole section is subject to multiple interpretations; much hinges on the purchases 'reasonable expectations'. When it comes to money, reasonableness usually flies out the door.Kiran K. Garimella shared thisTODAY 🚨: The Commission issued an interpretation that clarifies the application of federal securities laws to crypto assets. This is a major step to provide greater clarity regarding the Commission’s treatment of crypto assets. Read the release here: https://ow.ly/XhhV50YvxvO

Kiran K. Garimella reposted thisKiran K. Garimella reposted this🚨 A Historic First for Private Capital Markets. For decades, public markets have had the gold standard of compliant, globally distributed news dissemination. Private markets? Left behind. Until now. We, at KoreInside, are proud to announce the official launch of KoreWire — the first verified newswire dissemination company built EXCLUSIVELY for the private capital markets ecosystem. This isn't just another PR wire. KoreWire is purpose-built infrastructure, distributing compliant news releases across the full spectrum of private market activity: ✅ Capital raise announcements ✅ Regulatory disclosures ✅ Broker-dealer updates ✅ Funding platform announcements ✅ Issuer news ✅ Investor acquisition communications Leading KoreWire is Gregg Castano — a 30-year veteran of Business Wire, including 7 years as President. Gregg has seen firsthand how private markets have been underserved by traditional dissemination providers. He's here to change that. At KoreInside, our mission has always been to bring private capital markets to the masses. A dedicated, compliant newswire isn't a nice-to-have — it's a foundational piece of that infrastructure. 🎁 Special Launch Gift for Our Partners & Gladiators: As a thank-you for your continued support, we're offering 10 FREE news releases for your company. To claim your gift, contact Gregg directly at 📧 gregg@korewire.com by March 20, 2026. 🔗 Learn more: https://korewire.com/ This is just the beginning.

Foreword by Dr. Vint-Cerf, one of the founding fathers of the Internet and recipient of the ACM Turing Award. This book is a wake-up call to all game changers, alerting them to the impending collision of the two largest foundational technologies for the coming decades: artificial intelligence and blockchain. AI, rightly engineered and deployed, has the potential to become humanity's best and most indefatigable servant, freeing up humans from wage slavery. Blockchain, responsibly governed and deployed, has the potential to truly democratize society in spirit and not just in name, by eliminating friction in the world's transactions and eliminating usurious middlemen, and by facilitating a more equitably distributed internet of value.
The most efficient and effective ways for this to happen is through a partnership between these two powerful technologies, where blockchain delivers trusted and immutable information for AI, and AI delivers cognition and automation to business processes.
None of this will happen automatically, since the law of social entropy is as inexorable as the law of physical entropy, leading to chaos by default. It is up to the game changers to understand, tame, engineer, and deploy these two technologies as an integrated whole for both commercial value and for social benefit. -

The Power of Process

See publicationA business novel that uses fictional vignettes to describe BPM and its relationship to SOA, Six Sigma, and Lean. The treatment is completely business-oriented (i.e., non-technical), as well as technology-neutral (i.e., vendor-agnostic).
The book also covers topics such as risk management, innovation, process-centric thinking, and process maturity.

Since 2007, the book has been used as a supplemental text book at the following universities for MBA, EMBA, and undergraduate programs: University of Florida's Warrington College of Business Adminstration for their professional MBA courses; University of Georgia's Terry School of Business; University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee; Steven's Institute of Technology; Arizona State University; University of Sydney.
Publisher's Blurb: This gripping, fast-paced book is changing how America does business in the twenty-first century. Not since Eliyahu Goldratt's 1984 breakaway book, The Goal (2 million in print), has such an intriguing business message been presented at the intersection of business and entertainment. This book is an engaging novelette and, at the same time, a thought-provoking business book about how to harness the power of process management to unleash new sources of competitive advantage.
Kiran Garimella separates the hype from the reality of process management, arguing for the new mindset and corporate culture necessary to sustain a true process-oriented organization. Process management can enable innovation, address compliance, increase controllership, manage risk, improve customer-centricity, and ensure agility. Dr. Garimella reinforces his message through fictional situations and engaging dialog. He turns the inevitable alphabet soup of business and technology terms into a gourmet's delight with true business substance.
