Contact me if you want to engage with one of the leading deep-tech blockchain startups in the world. Since 2013, my co-founders and I have pioneered several "blockchain" tools & applications: - BigchainDB, a blockchain database for data driven use cases - Ocean Protocol, a decentralized data exchange protocol that unlocks data for AI - ascribe.io, a service for creators to claim attribution and transfer rights on the blockchain, including WhereOnThe.net and Image Match ML tools. - IPDB, the Interplanetary Database, a global blockchain database network From 2008-2013, I was a Founder at Avantalion International Consulting, whose mission is to build banks for the unbanked. We helped to build 18+ banks and financial services companies across the globe in 12 years. From 1996-2008, I worked 5+ years at Daimler Financial Services (Mercedes Benz) and 6 years at Accenture. I've also provided guest lectures at MIT, Oxford, NYU and ESMT, along with over 100 public presentations on blockchain and decentralized technologies.
