Jean-Marc has been at the forefront of the crypto revolution and brings over 25 years of financial, information technology, and executive management expertise. Early on in his career, Jean-Marc focused on financial strategy, and trading algorithms. Later he took this experience and transitioned into real estate where he developed novel software that helped his company manage entire real estate portfolios.

After exiting real estate, Jean-Marc initiated another project called Liquid Gold. It was here he first learned about Bitcoin, and immediately became passionate about the transformational implications cryptocurrency would have on the world. He quickly transitioned from Liquid Gold to Liquid Bits and began to focus solely on Bitcoin.

In 2013, he founded Bitcoin Embassy, the world’s first entrepreneurial hub for developers, professionals, and startups in the Bitcoin industry. His vision for the Embassy was to foster a cryptocurrency community where people from different backgrounds and experiences could come together and create mutually beneficial relationships that could help further develop and advance this disruptive technology.

Through these experiences, Jean-Marc sees the potential of blockchain technology and the important implications it has for society on a massive scale. He has a deep interest in using blockchain to help people and organizations strike the balance between privacy and transparency.
