I've known Karl Mohan, GM of APAC and MENA at Crypto.com, for many years, and I am fortunate to call him a very good friend. In this episode, he provides an insider's look into Crypto.com's meteoric growth.

Karl provides rare insights into Crypto.com's engineering culture and their deep focus on building secure products people can trust. We explore thoughtful perspectives on how crypto can cooperate with regulators, the path to mainstream adoption, and Karl's vision for how decentralized money and finance may one day transform society.

I had an illuminating discussion with him, exploring his leadership wisdom and lessons on managing people with diverse cultures.

I was so inspired learning about Karl's path. It's a discussion that will light that entrepreneurial spark inside you, too.

The future belongs to the bold. Karl Mohan shows the way.
