Seoul & Palo Alto, South Korea & United Sates, September 10th, 2025, Chainwire

With its September 23 debut fast approaching, Origin Summit reveals a powerful second wave of speakers at the forefront of culture, AI, blockchain, and capital

Story, the world’s IP blockchain, in collaboration with Blockworks), today revealed a powerful second wave of speakers and participants who will take the stage during Korea Blockchain Week in Seoul.The speaker line upbrings together leading voices across AI, blockchain, and finance to explore how intellectual property (IP) is becoming the most consequential real-world asset class of the AI era set to unlock an $80 trillion, illiquid market at the heart of AI’s next evolution.

Hosted by Story, the world’s IP blockchain, in collaboration with Blockworks and Korea Economic Daily (Korea’s largest finance media group), Origin Summit is the premier institutional forum at the intersection of AI, capital, and programmable IP.

This second wave strengthens Origin Summit’s mission: to bridge culture, institutional capital, AI, and next-generation infrastructure. These speakers bring unique perspectives on everything from entertainment and gaming IP to digital identity, tokenization, and the future of AI-native creative economies.

A Convergence of AI, IP, and Real-World Value

Intellectual property (IP) is the backbone of global creativity, culture, and innovation. IP spans everything from AI training data and music catalogs to biotech patents, entertainment franchises, and user-generated content. Valued at over $80 trillion, IP is one of the world’s largest and most important asset classes, but it remains fragmented, illiquid, and largely invisible to markets.

As artificial intelligence advances, access to verified, rights-cleared IP is becoming critical. Models need structured data, not scraped content, and AI-native applications require infrastructure that can trace, license, and monetize contributions in real time. Meanwhile, institutional capital is searching for the next wave of real-world assets, and crypto is evolving from speculation to programmable ownership. IP sits at the center of this convergence. Origin Summit brings together the builders, investors, and cultural leaders unlocking the programmable IP economy, where AI, crypto, and capital align around one of the most consequential frontiers of the next decade.

Why Korea

Few places on earth better capture the convergence of culture, capital, and technology than South Korea. It’s home to one of the world’s most digitally fluent populations, a booming creative IP sector, widespread digital-asset adoption, and some of the strongest industrial players advancing embodied AI.

  • Cultural IP exports, including music, gaming, film, and animation, reached $13.6 billion in 2024.
  • IP exports have more than tripled over the past decade, hitting $9.85 billion.
  • South Korea has the largest number of paid ChatGPT subscribers outside the U.S., reflecting its world-leading AI adoption. Weekly usage has exploded (up 4.5× over the past year), making it one of the most dynamic and AI-savvy markets globally.
  • Korea is fast emerging as the frontier of Physical AI and robotics, with Samsung, LG, Hyundai, and SK leading the charge. It has the world’s highest robot density (1,012 per 10,000 workers) and a robotics market growing nearly 15% annually, reinforced by the K-Humanoid Alliance aiming for advanced humanoids by 2028.
  • Crypto adoption is surging, with 30% of the population (~15.6 million people) actively investing in digital assets.
  • South Korean exchanges currently capture nearly 50% of global altcoin trading volume.
  • Coupled with a vibrant retail trading base ($663B in KRW trades vs USD markets) and consolidated liquidity on platforms like Upbit and Bithumb, Korea has emerged as a critical hub for digital asset innovation.
  • The domestic crypto market reached a value of ₩102 trillion, with daily trading volumes up 20% year-over-year.
