Inveniam Mantra

ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates, June 16, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Inveniam Capital Partners today announced plans to acquire MANTRA and its affiliated entities in a transaction expected to close by June 30, 2026. The agreement follows a $20 million strategic investment Inveniam made in MANTRA in August 2025. The tandem collaborated closely on the May 13th launch of the NVNM Chain, a purpose-built Layer 2 blockchain on MANTRA Chain. The unique technology anchors cryptographic proofs of private market asset data for institutional finance and AI-driven systems.

From investor to acquirer

Inveniam’s August 2025 investment was a directional bet. AI and RWA tokenization are converging, and the infrastructure layer connecting them does not yet exist at scale. Building NVNM Chain together was the test of that thesis. NVNM Chain provides its users an incorruptible digital source of truth that keeps sensitive information off-chain. It inherits security from MANTRA Chain through Interchain Security, giving AI systems and institutional counterparties a verifiable record of asset provenance without accessing confidential data rooms. NVNM Chain’s mainnet genesis block launched May 13th, 2026, proving technical compatibility at production scale. The acquisition announced today follows from that proof.

“We initially invested in MANTRA because we believed regulated blockchain infrastructure and AI-ready private market data belonged on the same stack. NVNM Chain, the Layer 2 we built together, adds to this proposition. This acquisition positions us to be value additive to the global private markets ecosystem faster. This is what will allow our global ecosystem to deliver digital private markets to market operators, asset owners, and institutional private markets investors alongside global DeFi markets.” – Patrick O’Meara, Chairman & CEO of Inveniam Capital Partners

Team and operational continuity

The MANTRA brand remains a key focus of the combined entity, and the MANTRA team will continue operating under Inveniam’s ownership. MANTRA Chain, its native gas token $MANTRA, MANTRA Finance, and mantraUSD remain the core infrastructure pillars of the combined entity. The acquisition formalizes an integration that has already been underway at the operational level since late 2025.

The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions and is expected to close in Q3 2026. Financial terms are not disclosed.

“Inveniam and MANTRA have been building toward this since Inveniam’s strategic investment last August. When you share the same conviction about where real world assets and AI are heading, and you’ve already proven you can build together, the question is, why keep the organizational boundary? We decided not to.” – John Patrick Mullin, CEO, MANTRA (suggested – flagged for John’s review)
