Motiwala cultivates an untapped digital gold market in Southeast Asia
Ever since the outbreak of Covid-19, investors worldwide have turned to transfer part of their assets into gold investment to avoid market uncertainties and take advantage of gold’s reliable store of value. Investors have always cited gold as a safe haven when market uncertainties intensify, and the events in 2020 further confirmed the established correlation between gold and market risk levels.
Since January 2020, the gold price has zipped up 25% by the end of the year, even hitting a record high of over $2,000 per ounce at one point for the first time in history.
Along with the growth of demand for gold-related investments, supply grows too. A Dubai-based precious metal supplier known as Motiwala caught sight of the growth in demand and is determined to make use of this opportunity to become a world leader in the precious metal industry.
How Motiwala accumulated sand grain into mountain
Motiwala Jewellers LLC is a certified precious metal refinery, gold processor, bullion manufacturer, and precious metal supplier based in Dubai. Renowned for its complete and diversified rare metal business network, Motiwala Jewellers is one of the top 5 gold merchants globally and one of the largest refineries in the Middle East region.
But Rome wasn’t built in a day. It takes a lot of passion and hard work to build such a spectacular precious metal empire. Its founder, Iqbal Bhai from Pakistan, founded Motiwala 40 years ago and has been in the gold industry since then. He started as a gold and jewellery wholesaler in his home country and later found success when he filed a patent for the international gold market fair in Dubai after discovering its undeveloped gold market.
Through several decades of development, Motiwala Jewellers established subsidiary companies to further diversify the range of services it provides and as an effort to complete its supply chain. It is now the holding company of Motiwala Gold Trading, Motiwala Gold & Precious Stone Industry, Motiwala Gold & Metal Laboratory, Shaheen Exchange.
Since then, the company’s businesses have expanded to cover gold mining, processing, jewellery design, jewellery retail stores, physical gold trading, gold and metal laboratories, precious stones & diamond retail stores, and currency exchange.
With its refinery and an ISO 17025 certified in-house laboratory, Motiwala can produce gold bullion at the finest quality and allow investors to purchase gold bars ranging from 1 gram to 100 grams in size at a competitive price in its physical stores, thus allowing all investors to start investing in gold regardless of their capital size.
Southeast Asia has a bright future as a digital gold haven
The gold market in Asia, Southeast Asia in particular, are underdeveloped, but experts are confident that Southeast Asia has a bright future as a digital gold haven in the near future as Southeast Asia has one of the fastest rates of digital payment adoption and more than 400 million internet users. The strong tech foundations were laid by the appealing regulatory landscape and strong government support that has escalated the growth of innovation and healthy competition in this region.
In response to the year-long pandemic crisis, part of the gold and jewellery retailers in Asia are moving their retail businesses onto the internet to reach online consumers and combat the highly contagious virus simultaneously. With robust governance and regulations, digital gold has been gaining much traction in the Southeast Asia market.
Tapping into Southeast Asia’s growing digital gold landscape
Envisioned to become the world leader for dealers and traders from across the globe and to achieve sustainable quality growth, Motiwala co-founded Moti Investment Capital (MIC) in 2018 to expand its global presence in the capital trading sector. The establishment of MIC will enable investors to achieve low-risk, sustainable returns using Motiwala’s unique set of the gold supply chain.
As the first step to globalize its operation, Motiwala has tapped into Southeast Asian countries, providing a wide array of services to the new countries, including asset management, physical gold trading and more. With Motiwala’s supply chain and diverse line of services, it will allow investors to purchase physical gold even if the investors are located outside of Dubai.
In 2018, member countries in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) had consumed 309 tonnes of gold, making Southeast Asia the third-largest market for gold in the world. With the combination of rapid digital adoption, the cultural importance of gold in the region, and low expansion costs, it makes Southeast Asia an ideal region as the first step in Motiwala’s globalization.
MOTIWALA announces partnership with BIS
Motiwala has recently announced its partnership with BIS to expand its global presence. BIS Holding is the first of its kind asset management firm to provide unique investment opportunities for investors, allowing clients to have the privilege to participate in the markets like a real corporate level liquidity provider.
“We are excited to partner with BIS,” said Iqbal Bhai, Founder of Motiwala group. “Through this strategic partnership, Motiwala and BIS can form a clear win-win relationship to provide more value to your existing customers. It would also bolster the long-term partnership between Motiwala and BIS as both firms continue to seek opportunities to achieve business expansion.”

Italy, 15th May 2026 — IMBUED, a university spin-off from La Sapienza University of Rome, launched a Kickstarter campaign on 12 May 2026 to support the development of its MetaMuseum platform, a digital environment designed to facilitate participatory approaches to art and creative practice.
The campaign will run until 26 June 2026 with a funding target of GBP 65,000.
IMBUED is positioned as a human-centred platform that enables users to engage with artworks beyond passive viewing. The MetaMuseum integrates elements of exhibition space, creative tools, and community interaction, allowing participants to explore, interpret, and produce digital works. The platform is being designed to eventually integrate emotion-aware AI tools that support collaborative creativity and artistic exploration. Helping users reinterpret and evolve artworks in ways that reflect both creative intent and emotional context, without reducing the experience to purely automated generation.
The project is informed by the concept of the “Beholder’s Share,” whereby the viewer contributes to the meaning of an artwork. Within the platform, user interpretations may generate new outputs referred to as Certified Digital Artworks (CDAs), which can be registered via an integrated blockchain-based system.
A representative of IMBUED stated:
“The project is based on the principle ‘I Art Therefore I Am’, reflecting the view that creative expression is a universal capability. With ‘Let’s Make Art Happen’ as a guiding ethos, we are building a space where technology—including AI—supports human creativity rather than replacing it. The Kickstarter campaign is intended to support early access and community participation in the platform’s development.”
The initiative is developed through a multidisciplinary framework spanning neuroscience, psychology, physiology, and computer science, in collaboration with La Sapienza University of Rome. This foundation also informs IMBUED’s exploration of emotion-aware AI—systems designed to better understand how users experience and respond to creative work, rather than simply generating outputs on demand. The platform will contribute to ongoing research related to creativity and human perception.
Campaign Details:
· Launch Date: 9 May 2026
· End Date: 24 June 2026
· Funding Target: GBP 65,000
Indicative Stretch Objectives:
· GBP 200,000 – Android platform development
· GBP 300,000 – NFT and blockchain marketplace functionality
· GBP 500,000 – Advanced creative editor with expanded AI-assisted tools
· GBP 1,000,000 – Expansion into the United States and EMEA markets
The platform operates under the principle “0% Engagement — 100% Inspiration,” reflecting a design approach focused on creative interaction rather than maximising user retention metrics. AI within IMBUED is positioned as an enabling layer—enhancing exploration, interpretation, and collaboration—while keeping the human experience at the center.
About IMBUED
IMBUED is a digital art platform developed as a spin-off from La Sapienza University of Rome. The project brings together artistic practice, scientific research, and digital technologies—including emotion-aware AI—to support participatory models of creativity and more intuitive human–machine interaction.

Fortress Refocuses Agency Exclusively on Law Firm Clients, Drawing on Founder’s Decade-Plus in Legal Marketing
SEO and AI digital marketing agency returns to its legal industry roots under Founder & CEO Gerrid Smith
United States, 15th May 2026 — Fortress, an SEO and AI digital marketing agency, today announced that it is now accepting new clients exclusively from the legal industry. The shift reflects rising demand from law firms and the deep legal-vertical expertise of the agency’s leadership team. Existing non-legal clients will continue to be served without disruption.
Founder and CEO Gerrid Smith brings more than 20 years of digital marketing experience and over 12 years working specifically with law firms. He previously founded Black Fin, a well-known legal marketing agency, which he sold in 2020. Six years later, sustained demand from attorneys seeking results-driven SEO and digital strategy has drawn Smith and his team back to the vertical they know best.
“I built Fortress into a strong agency across multiple industries, and the legal work kept finding us along the way,” said Gerrid Smith, Founder and CEO of Fortress. “The timing is right to lean back in. Law firms want strategic, measurable marketing, and that’s exactly the work our team has spent more than a decade mastering. Refocusing Fortress on the legal industry lets us go all in on what we do best.”
Smith is joined by Lisa Carter, VP at Fortress, who worked alongside him at Black Fin before its sale. Together, they have spent more than a decade refining what works for law firm marketing, from local SEO and AI-driven search optimization to content strategy, technical audits, and link building tailored to competitive practice areas.
“Most agencies treat law firms like any other local business with a bigger budget,” Smith added. “That’s how firms end up with compliance violations, wasted ad spend, and rankings that never materialize. Legal marketing has its own rules, its own search behavior, and its own competitive dynamics. Firms deserve a team that has lived inside those realities, not one figuring it out on their dime.”
Fortress has produced results for firms across personal injury, criminal defense, family law, and estate planning practices. While Fortress does not publicly share its client list, the team is available to discuss specific case results and methodologies during consultations.
About Fortress
Fortress is an SEO and AI digital marketing agency now focused exclusively on serving law firms. Led by Founder and CEO Gerrid Smith, the team combines over a decade of dedicated legal marketing experience with a results-first approach to SEO, content, and online visibility.
