EP37.【Knowledge Surfing x Gwendolyn Regina】Binance’s strategy to onboard the first billion users to crypto

In the rapidly shifting landscape of Web3, one constant remains: the search for the next breakthrough in blockchain innovation. Binance, the largest crypto exchange in the world, is one of the most aggressive players in the space. It is also one of the few exchanges that’s still standing and relatively unaffected by (and perhaps even benefited from) the recent downfall of LUNA, 3AC, and FTX. 

In this episode, we are honored to have Gwen as our guest to delve further into this topic. With 16 years of experience in the media and tech industry across Asia, Paris, and Silicon Valley, Gwen is now the investment director of the BNB Chain Fund, originally initiated by Binance.

The BNB Chain Fund is a $1 billion fund with the goal to onboard the first billion users to crypto. Gwen will share with us her role as the investment director of the BNB Chain Fund, her entrepreneur and investor journey, and her views on the blockchain industry. Tune in and explore the Web3 world with us!
