Hi I’m Bijan
TIME TO BUILD A BETTER INTERNET
That’s why I help highly technical Web3 teams grow—by scaling partnerships, narratives & communities.
As founder and an IC I have enabled a whole range of people do more with Web3, incuding engineers, artists, traders, hedge funds, open source communities, Web3 and Web2 brands.
Now, I am looking for a new team that’s on the same mission.
That plays long term games with long term people.
That wants fuel for growth now.
Does that sound like your team? Don’t be shy, say hi!
