The Role

Guido’s will be responsible for maintaining and developing all aspects of the Lisk Foundation. His primary focus will be its administrative, legal and financial wellbeing. With the expansion of the Zug office, Guido will oversee sourcing top talent to join him in supervising the activity of our office.

He will use his international law background and Swiss regulatory system knowledge to make sure Lisk makes full use of Crypto Valley’s ecosystem. Guido will also be responsible for compiling regular reports and presenting his work’s results to the Foundation Council.

The Experience

Guido has previously worked in international humanitarian aid and executive positions in the financial, chemical and startup sectors. The latest chapter of his career has seen him focus on driving the global adoption of serious blockchain projects. His motto is ‘nothing is impossible,’ and he takes it very seriously in his work.

Zug Office Expands

Two new hires have also joined Guido in our Zug office. Marcin Zarakowski is joining as the Legal Counsel. He will drive progress in compliance, corporate issues, and management of intellectual property. Camelia Ionela Mikesch has joined as the Foundation’s Accounting Manager and will help oversee its finances.
