Being an Innovative Leader in an Innovating World with Hussein Hallak: The 10-Minute Leader S2: Ep 4

Hussein Hallak is the Founder and CEO of Next Decentrum, the launchpad for the world’s most iconic NFT products. He is also the Creative Director of Crypto Pharaohs, a collection of 7006 majestic NFT collectibles inspired by the rich history of ancient Egypt.

 

With over 25 years of experience in the world of innovation, technology and startups, it is no surprise that he has been featured in places like Forbes, BetaKit, Daily Hive, CBC. And in 2019, he was recognized as one of 30 Vancouver tech thought leaders and influencers to follow.

 

Listen to this episode of my interview with him and learn:

• About his company, Next Decentrum, and why they pivoted from a blockchain company for education to building an NFT platform.

 

• The biggest challenges of NFT, blockchain, and cryptocurrency technologies, and a brief history.

 

• How blockchain will impact businesses 5 or 10 years from now and how it creates a world where people can easily move their finances, assets, and identities between multiple marketplaces and properties online.

 

• Why NFTs should not be considered an investment (if you’re not a trader per se). And why should you have a personal reason for embarking on a new and potentially risky venture.

 

• The key element that makes a startup succeed and why some startups fail. As well as the different components of a startup that should be considered.

 

• Biggest mistakes that people make and are mostly not prepared for when venturing into startups.

 

• A deeper understanding of innovation and the different ways of how to be innovative.
