Dear community,

Here’s some news about what I’m up to! After months of exploring, learning about and investing in many areas (environment, healthcare, fintech, productivity software, cybersecurity and blockchain), I’ve picked my next move!

I’m building a studio in the blockchain space with my new partners in crime Ness Benamran and Pierre Gilardin to help creators and companies execute their web3 initiatives - like their first NFT project for example. Web3 brings a lot of excitement and skepticism so we help them navigate that noise and bring ideas to reality - with years of experience in tech, consumer products and business. 

I’m neither a web3 fanatic nor a bear, I just think it’s a set of great technologies to play with, that can enable new applications and behaviors. Web3 isn’t a thing in itself and can have very different interpretations. Our North Star here is to build with our partners cool and meaningful experiences that reach the mass. 

We are going after the untapped potential for creators and brands to transform their communities with the web3 stack. 99% of projects fail and the ones who work have built a genuine sense of belonging. This can’t be faked or copied. But millions of already passionate communities are waiting for it, so here we are!

I’ll start sharing more about our journey on my Twitter or on our Substack.
