On May 2-3, we’re going to host the EU-Startups Summit in Barcelona. It will be the 6th edition of our annual flagship event – and with up to 1,200 startup founders and investors from across Europe also our biggest one so far!
Today we’re excited to announce another great speaker who will join us this year. It’s Dr. Yassin Hankir, the founder and CEO of savedroid.
Founded in 2015 and based in Frankfurt, savedroid is an award-winning fintech that has created a safe and easy way to buy, use and save cryptocurrencies. Users can simply download the app and get started right away – no crypto exchange signup, no wallet setup, or private key handling. The app is protected and secures your cryptocurrencies even if you lose your smartphone or it gets stolen. With savedroid, Yassin aims to democratise cryptocurrencies with a unique AI-based ecosystem of crypto saving and investing, with users profiting from easy access to smart saving and investment plans across coins and tokens. In 2018 savedroid did a $50 million ICO.
In addition to founding savedroid, Yassin is co-host of the Frankfurt Fintech Meetup, and also co-founded the robo-advisor vaamo. Before becoming an entrepreneur, Yassin worked as strategy consultant at McKinsey & Company, where he focused on growth strategies, product development and implementation, as well as marketing and distribution for retail and banking sectors.
At the EU-Startups Summit, Yassin will talk about “The Democratization of Crypto – a (not so) crazy Vision based on real-life fuckups and learnings from our $50 million ICO”.
