The global startup ecosystem is something that never stops fascinating me. The dynamic nature of the interactions, constant flow of new technologies, the ever-changing investment landscape. Over the course of my career, I have developed a keen interest in the field of Blockchain. I strongly believe that Blockchain, as a technology layer, has the capability to improve lives, streamline businesses and radically transform the world as we know it. Being able to say that I love coming to work everyday is a privilege. My role as the Business Operations manager at Tribe Accelerator involves designing and iterating our program to increase value captured by our acceleratees, as well as on-the-ground operational work in the execution of the program. I also engage and manage our network of partners and mentors.
