n business development, STO stands for Security Token Offering — a regulated fundraising model where companies issue blockchain-based tokens that represent real financial securities such as equity, revenue shares, or asset ownership. Unlike ICOs, STOs must comply with securities laws, making them more reliable for institutional and accredited investors.

From a business-growth perspective, STOs help companies raise capital faster, reach global investors, and tokenize traditionally illiquid assets (real estate, funds, commodities, IP, etc.). They also introduce transparency through on-chain records and reduce administrative overhead with automated compliance.

Many enterprises partner with an STO Development company like Debut Infotech to structure compliant offerings, create security tokens, set up investor dashboards, and integrate smart-contract-based governance into existing systems.
