On joining IOTA
When I first learned about IOTA, it immediately sparked my imagination as a key enabler of the sharing economy. In my eyes, the answer to the challenges of today can only be the more sensible use of our resources and increased cooperation on a global scale. IOTA promises to pave the way towards these goals and opens up new avenues to build a more inclusive and equal society.
I could not be more thrilled to support the development of the future economy, in such an ambitious and passionate team.
Florian´s profound understanding of economics, technology, and human behavior will complement our Social Impact & Regulatory Affairs Team, and help to anchor IOTA as the backbone of the sharing economy. We are very happy that he is part of our journey and welcome him warmly to the IOTA Foundation!
