In the previous article, you could read that the big community helps in having a successful ICO. This is true but just partly. The thing which indeed helps in funds collecting is the team. Without the strong team, the high-quality product cannot be made, the marketing campaign cannot be conduct and ICO cannot be splendid. So the strong team somehow guarantee the project blooming, during the ICO and what is more important, after. So, let’s check the ICONIQ team.
Team
Project CEO is Patrick Lowry, venture capitalist and investor with 8 years of financial industry experience, PwC auditor and startup co-founder. Not less experience in venture investments topics has Max Lautenschaeger, sourcing director & MP - venture developer with 3 years of experience in consulting, company building, FinTech and private equity. It looks like their life experience in investment brought them the ICONIQ idea. Third, the most important person on this team is Dominic Ward, a U.S Managing Director. But of course, the project wouldn’t be so successful without the responsible Technology Director. Oz Barmatz is an experienced CTO, serial entrepreneur and full-stack developer. He co-founded and served as Epiphyte Corporation’s CTO and is advisor CTO to the ProCircle Network. Three other directors are responsible for the strategy (Sandris Murins), marketing (Arabdha Sudhir) and portfolio (Lukasz Musialski).
What you can see in this picture is not the whole team. Directory board supports managers including Syuzanna Avanesyan responsible for communication and Lukas Fiedler – community manager. Team fulfils Daniel Rösch - Corporate Design Expert and Andreas Mikolajewski Technical Consultant.
Obviously, there are plenty people working on the backstage of this project. It is impossible to make such a complex IT part just with two team members. Very likely also marketing team has some support. Whoever worked on this project, they made a very high-quality product.
Advisers
ICONIQ in the advertisement materials called their advisers a world-class. Indeed they have many world-famous faces like for example David Drake or Ian Scarffe. I am also sure that for example prof. Dr. Philipp Sander – head of Frankfurt School Blockchain Center or Dimitri Chupryna – the TaaS Co-founder can bring a lot to the project.
Of course, besides the advisers, ICONIQ has a great support from their partners. These were divided into official documents for 3 groups – legal & research, investment & pipeline and crypto specific. Whole list you can find below. I am sure that with such strong partnerships if the situation on the market would be better, the number project collected would be significantly higher.
