Republic, a global online investing platform, will reportedly build Sui Launchpad, a new iteration of its launchpad platform that will enable companies to create utility tokens.
Republic is the largest online investment platform in the world, providing opportunities for both retail and sophisticated investors across a spectrum of private securities.
Republic will be joined in this effort by DeLorean Labs, the Web3 arm of DeLorean Motor Company, which will now reportedly become the “first” to use this offering as the initial token issuer on Sui LaunchPad.
The Republic Launchpad is a global investment platform that enables companies to bring innovative utility tokens to market while “ensuring compliance for Web3 communities across retail, accredited, and institutional investors.”
As mentioned in the announcement, Republic’s LaunchPad will be available to developers and organizations looking to “launch a token sale on Sui in the form of Sui LaunchPad.”
Sui will now reportedly be the “first” non-Ethereum chain the Republic Wallet integrates with its Launchpad product.
Sui LaunchPad will facilitate token sales, investor access, and token distribution through an integrated ecosystem “combining regulatory compliance and investor tools.”
DeLorean Labs, the Web3 arm of DeLorean Motor Company and an active Sui ecosystem member, is described as being a “natural fit as the first issuer on Sui Launchpad.”
The token issuance immediately follows the sold-out mint of DeLorean’s Time Capsule NFT series, which allowed users to mint a “series of 8,800 NFTs for the chance to win a wide variety of prizes, including a 2025 DeLorean EV.”
Jameel Khalfan, Head of Ecosystem Development at Sui Foundation, said:
“Thanks to Sui LaunchPad, builders on Sui will benefit massively from access to Republic’s investor base and global visibility. From developers new to the ecosystem to builders currently hard at work on Sui, this integration will encourage wider participation in tokenized projects.”
