    • Protocols — the Protocol Fund, a long-term investment vehicle in cryptocurrencies and blockchain protocols.

  • GenesisBlock — the blockchain lab I helped found at FECAP University, on a mission to reduce the distance between university academics and society/business through education and the encouragement of high-impact research.

2011

  • Establish Brazil — your local expert partner for exploring opportunities, establishing a presence, and growing a business in Brazil; total assistance across the three stages of market entry and expansion in Brazil and Latin America — planning, execution, and growth.2

2010

  • Adus — the Refugee Reintegration Institute (founded 2010), a public-interest civil-society organization that helps refugees and other victims of forced migration reduce the barriers to their effective reintegration into society. As a member of its Conselho Consultivo I help develop initiatives promoting social, economic and cultural inclusion for refugees and asylum seekers.

2003

  • Akhawia — أخوية سوريا, “the Brotherhood of Syria”: a Syrian youth civil-society initiative (cultural, intellectual and social) supporting civil liberties, democratic pluralism and public responsibility. With 270k+ members it was one of the most popular online socio-political forums for youth in the Middle East. It ran from 2003 until it was forcibly stopped at the end of 2009.
