🔹Frederik Gregaard - Enabling Trust and Transformation in Financial Services through Blockchain Technology🔹
Welcome to my professional network. I currently serve as the Chief Executive Officer of the Cardano Foundation, a role I stepped into in October 2021. My journey in professional services and the financial industry spans over 20 years, across Switzerland and Scandinavia. This experience has provided me a strong footing in capital markets, digital asset management, private banking, and trading infrastructure. Certified in currency trading and as a digital asset management expert, my forte lies in the nexus of technology and financial services.
📌 Key Accomplishments:
- Orchestrated significant growth and adoption for the Cardano Foundation.
- Spearheaded the launch of the Cardano Shelley mainnet in July 2020.
- Build a Blockchain enabled Private Banking infrastructure on a greenfield.
- A firm advocate for leveraging blockchain for financial inclusion and sustainability.
- Implemented Bitcoin & Altcoin for Several Swiss Banks; Assessment of counter-party risk, sourcing of liquidity risk, integration to existing trading infrastructure & treasury, education of the various business units and design of the business
📌 Innovation and Mentorship:
I am ardently passionate about how technology can reshape traditional business models and reintroduce trust into banking. Beyond the office, you will find me on trails, as an avid trail runner.
📌 Technology's Impact on Financial Markets:
- Worked with a myriad of Fintech firms in Switzerland and globally, primarily in DLT, Robo Advisors, Asset Allocation, and KYC automation.
- Constructed operational and trading infrastructure for over 100 Asset Managers.
- Implemented and advised on cryptocurrency integration for Swiss banks and infrastructure providers.
As CEO of the Cardano Foundation, I am tasked with moving society towards a blockchain-enabled future, one based on inclusiveness and transparency. My key priorities as CEO are to drive the Cardano Foundation’s adoption strategy, through to integration and execution of its missions, to enable fast-track value creation for inclusive and equitable growth using Cardano. Essentially to empower the architects of the decentralized era, set the direction for governance as a service, and enable economic empowerment.
Feel free to reach out for collaborations, or discussions on blockchain, digital assets, or trail running. I am open to conversations that push the envelope and bring meaningful change to our world.
