New York-based global blockchain consortium Agentic Group has announced the establishment of an office in London, UK. Agentic UK aims to revive the internet finance industry after the Brexit referendum.

Founded in 2015, Agentic Group is a membership-based alliance organization with more than 35 blockchain and digital currency enterprise members around the world. The organization provides insider information, advice, consulting and development services to enterprises, non-profit organizations and government agencies to help the world understand and utilize emerging blockchain technologies.

“The creation of Agentic Group was a response to the need for a unified perspective in the field to understand the financial implications of digital currencies and blockchain, as well as their important impact on other areas of world business,” said Rik Willard, founder and executive director of Agentic Group.

The head of the UK office, Agentic UK, is Lucas Cervigni, a veteran and serial entrepreneur in the global internet finance industry.

He, the office's executive director, said: "There are many reasons why it is important to have an office in the UK."

"The UK is currently the world's fifth largest economy and has always performed extremely well in the financial services sector. In addition to New York City, London has been regarded as a financial center for decades, gathering many multinational financial institutions and attracting a number of innovative financial technology start-ups."

Cervigni commented on the impact of Brexit: "There is no doubt that the controversy surrounding blockchain and digital currencies has continued to grow and will continue to grow. Our goal is to transcend these debates and introduce industry pioneers to the potential of using this technology to change the world. We are committed to explaining the impact of the Brexit referendum on this revolutionary technology and answering your questions."

Leading figures in the financial services industry will welcome Agentic UK at a private gathering at The Gherkin on Monday.

Eric Benz, co-founder and COO of Credits, said: “Agentic Group is an exciting alliance providing information to regulated industries interested in exploring blockchain. Credits is a founding member and will provide the basic framework for the initiatives and projects to be announced later.”

Agentic UK is the second European office opened by Agentic Group in two months, following the establishment of Agentic France in France in June this year.
