Julian Sawyer on Bitstamp – the Original Global Crypto Exchange

Julian Sawyer joins us to discuss Bitstamp - the original global crypto exchange.Julian joins Bitstamp from Gemini, where he was the Managing Director for Europe. Prior to that, he built an extensive career in traditional finance as the co-founder of Starling Bank, where he served as Chief Operating Officer until 2019, overseeing the expansion of business services and growing Starling into one of the largest mobile banks in the U.K. Prior to this, he served as a consultant and advisor to other challenger banks and founded Bluerock Consulting, a financial management consulting firm which he successfully sold. In addition to becoming Bitstamp’s CEO, Julian is also an advisor to the board of the leading Australian challenger bank, Volt, and an Honorary Senior Visiting Fellow at CASS Business School’s Faculty of Management. Julian’s expertise in the complexities of global finance makes him uniquely suited to lead Bitstamp into its next chapter. He understands the possibilities that cryptocurrency holds for the world and how to integrate it with existing financial structures. He was chosen after an extensive global search to find Nejc Kodrič’s successor after Bitstamp’s founder decided it was time for him to transition into a less hands-on role with the company.Linkhttps://www.bitstamp.net/https://twitter.com/Bitstamphttps://uk.linkedin.com/in/juliansawyer*Disclaimer.
