3iQ Corp. ("3iQ"), a global pioneer in digital asset investment solutions, announced a strategic partnership with Further, a leading institutional investment solutions provider, to launch a digital asset multi-strategy hedge fund designed for institutional and sophisticated investors.

This collaboration brings together 3iQ's robust infrastructure and expertise in institutional-grade digital asset solutions and Further's deep knowledge of the digital asset and blockchain ecosystems. The collaboration marks a significant step forward in delivering innovative solutions within a sovereign-backed institutional framework. 

Institutions and sophisticated investors have long faced challenges when allocating to digital assets, from custody concerns and operational complexity to volatility. This partnership aims to overcome these barriers by delivering a technically secure, transparent, and risk-managed approach to digital asset exposure, while targeting compelling risk-adjusted returns. 

The initiative builds on 3iQ's pioneering track record as a digital asset innovator. 3iQ launched the world's first Digital Assets Managed Account Platform (QMAP), a hedge fund investment solution with robust institutional infrastructure. QMAP demonstrates how risk-managed strategies can provide secure exposure to digital assets, helping inform this next-generation partnership with Further.
