Why do you want to serve as an Expert Evaluator for the Localism Fund?

After an entrepreneurial journey leading several tech companies (COORDINA, CAPITALCELL) and serving as an advisor and mentor for impact investment funds (SHIP2B), I joined EthicHub in 2021 to combine my three core drivers: crowd economy, blockchain, and social impact.

After four intense and rewarding years supporting the project, I now remain involved as an advisor, which allows me to focus my experience and energy on new initiatives. I believe this is the perfect moment—both for the ecosystem and my professional path—to dedicate myself to mentoring and evaluating blockchain and social impact projects.

I’ve worked at the intersection of technology, finance, and social innovation, exploring how blockchain and crowd-based models can drive inclusive and regenerative impact.

As co-founder of COORDINA and later CapitalCell, I led digital transformation and fintech initiatives connecting investors with high-potential startups in health and biotech. In 2021, I joined EthicHub, a pioneering blockchain-based impact platform, where I helped scale a model providing fair financing to smallholder farmers through decentralized finance (DeFi).
