This week David & Michael speak to Keld van Schreven of KR1, Europe's leading digital asset investment company focused on decentralised and open-source blockchain networks. They discuss the recent surge in cryptocurrency, and what exactly is bitcoin and the blockchain network it sits on.
In dieser Live Session werfen wir gemeinsam mit Björn Schäfer einen Blick auf sein OKR Set, um dieses zu verstehen, zu hinterfragen und bei konkreten Formulierungen zu helfen. In Björns Case geht es um das Thema Revenue Alignment im Bereich B2B Sales & B2B Saas. Mit seinem Set möchte Björn Marketing, Sales, Customer Success und Product miteinander vereinbaren. In Anbetracht der aktuellen Wirtschaftslage stellt Björn sich die Frage, wie es gelingen kann, über die Betrachtung der kompletten Customer Experience die richtigen Initiativen zu ergreifen. Marco und Björn werfen einen Blick auf die Struktur, den logischen Aufbau und die Formulierungen des Sets. Sie tauchen thematisch tief ein und stellen den gesamten Aufbau nochmal in Frage, um am Ende das Puzzle gemeinsam neu zusammenzusetzen OKR Set, das diskutiert wurde: Less is more - boost relevant lead pipeline focused on ICP (segment No.2) KR1 - 80% of all MQL generated belong to segment No. 2 KR2 - 100 MQLs are generated via Linkedin Webinars KR3 - 100 MQLs are generated via Whitepaper lead nurturing Bring them home - double down attention on deal closing with customers (segment No.2) KR1 - 80% of all discovery calls are with prospects belonging to segment No.2 KR2 - 90% of all offer proposals sent are to prospects belonging to segment No.2 KR3 - conduct 2 hours per week off sales trainings to close deals faster Customer WOW - Built unique experience along entire customer journey (segment No.2) KR1 - get 50 answers from our client satisfaction survey KR2 - exceed NPS scoring of 50 KR3 - schedule 2 crucial product updates on roadmap - based on survey results Better safe than sorry - optimize unit economics for new logos (segment No.2) KR1 - focus lead generation on segment No. 2 only (min. 90% of all leads) KR2 - increase lead conversion from MQL to Offer Proposal to 35% KR3 - shorten sales cycle from Offer Proposal to Closed Won to 30 days Den Blogbeitrag zu diesem Video findet Ihr unter: https://murakamy.com/blog/okr-set-optimierung-b2b-sales Ausführliche Informationen zum Thema OKRs findet man unter https://murakamy.com/okr
In this conversation, we chat with Mona El Isa, the co-founder of Enzyme, one of the industry's leading decentralised asset management protocols, and founder and CEO at Avantgarde Finance. She is also President of MAMA (Multichain Asset Managers Association), and was nominated Technology Pioneer by the World Economic Forum and Digital Shaper in Bilanz magazine. Mona is a former star-trader at Goldman Sachs, promoted to Vice President by the age of 26 and made the “Top 30 under 30” list in Trader Magazine in 2008 and Forbes Magazine in 2011 after profitably trading the 2008 and 2011 crashes. She moved to Geneva-based macro fund Jabre Capital in 2011, before deciding in 2014 that the future of finance lay in blockchain technology. She studied Economics & Statistics at University College London. More specifically, we touch on the magnificent and harrowing journey from institutional finance during the financial crisis, to family office portfolio management, to multiple attempts at Web3 and DeFi. Mona has been through some incredible successes, as well as, harsh failures. Give this one a listen!
Keld van Schreven Co-Managing Director & Co-Founder of KR1 #KR1 provides an update on operations including the participation in crowdloans. KR1 is Europe's leading digital asset investment company. Incorporated in March 2016, KR1 plc is an internally managed digital asset investment company with one of the longest track records in the crypto markets and digital asset industry. KR1 plc shares are traded on the APX segment of the AQSE Growth Market, allowing anyone to purchase the shares and gain exposure to the crypto markets through KR1 plc's underlying portfolio of digital assets investments and revenue-generating staking activities. KR1 plc is different from most technology venture capital firms, with its primary focus on digital assets as an investment unit rather than traditional equity in start-ups. Equally, unlike some private crypto funds, KR1 plc is completely transparent and flexible in its operations, with significant investments and asset realisations being publicly announced.
George McDonaugh, Co-Founder & Director of KR1 #KR1 explains their participation in the Moonbeam crowd loan and Polkadot parachain auction. Investment Update: Moonbeam Network KR1 plc (KR1:AQSE), a leading digital asset investment company, is pleased to announce the Company's participation in the Moonbeam ("GLMR") crowdloan and Polkadot ("DOT") parachain auction. KR1 contributed a total of 350,000.00 DOT to the Moonbeam crowdloan campaign, which successfully secured the second parachain slot in the ongoing round of Polkadot parachain auctions. Moonbeam is an Ethereum-compatible smart contract platform on the Polkadot network that makes it easy to build natively interoperable applications. The Ethereum compatibility allows developers to deploy existing Solidity smart contracts and dApp frontends to Moonbeam with minimal changes. As a parachain on the Polkadot network, Moonbeam will benefit from the shared security of the Polkadot relay chain and integrations with other chains that are connected to Polkadot. Moonbeam and its sister chain Moonriver on Kusama have already gained traction with notable project integrations including Lido's liquid staking solution, the decentralised exchange SushiSwap and blockchain explorer Etherscan. The contributed DOT will be time-locked on the Polkadot blockchain for 96 weeks and will be returned to the Company following the completion of the respective Moonbeam parachain lease. Following the successful Moonbeam parachain auction bid, KR1 is going to receive a to-be-determined amount of Moonbeam ("GLMR") tokens over a time period of 96 weeks in return for supporting the Moonbeam crowdloan campaign. This method of token distribution involves no direct investment of capital, instead, it is an indirect investment with the opportunity costs being the inaccessibility of the locked DOT funds as well as foregoing any staking yields on the contributed DOT for the time period. In addition, following Moonbeam's token redenomination, the Company will receive a total of 13,000,000.00 GLMR tokens in line with KR1's previous backing of Moonbeam's seed and strategic funding rounds. About KR1 plc KR1 plc is a leading digital asset investment company supporting early-stage decentralised and open source blockchain projects. Founded in 2016 and publicly traded in London on the AQSE Growth Market (KR1:AQSE), KR1 has one of the longest and most successful track records of investment in the digital assets space by investing in decentralised platforms and protocols that are emerging to form new financial and internet infrastructures.

Cette semaine à Ça s'branche où? : une carte modem pour bloc-notes, un terminal télé HD, un concentrateur, la chaise ultime pour dos endoloris et des câbles pour vos appareils HD. Top branché, 1re partie On a beaucoup parlé de Wi-Fi et de connexion à Internet au cours des dernières émissions. Ce qui est tout à fait normal puisque des points d'accès sans fil à haute vitesse gratuits, c'est toujours utile! Sauf qu'il arrive parfois qu'on soit sur la route et qu'on n'ait pas accès à un tel point de connexion. C'est alors qu'une carte PC comme l'AirCard 595, de Sierra Wireless, entre en jeu. Il s'agit d'une carte PC qui se branche dans le port PCMCIA d'un ordinateur portatif et qui permet d'accéder à Internet à partir du réseau sans fil numérique de Bell (ou Telus). Cette AirCard est vendue par Bell Mobilité et, grande première au pays, elle peut être achetée avec un forfait « Données illimitées » pour 75 dollars par mois.. Top branché, 2e partie Les cartes modem PC qui se connectent à un réseau cellulaire peuvent prendre plus d'une forme. La plupart des blocs-notes utilisent un port PCMCIA, un peu plus large, mais de plus en plus de nouveaux appareils sont munis d'un port pour des cartes qu'on nomme ExpressCard. Heureusement, il existe des accessoires qui, eux, sont compatibles avec à peu près tous les PC munis d'une simple carte réseau Wi-Fi. C'est le cas du routeur mobile KR1 de Kyocera. Si, à tout hasard, vous désirez utiliser une carte PC avec le réseau GSM de Rogers ou Fido, vous pouvez aussi jeter un coup d'oeil du côté de la carte GC89, de Sony Ericsson. C'est beau mais c'est quoi? C'est une pieuvre pour appareils audiovisuels. Il peut avoir jusqu'à sept tentacules de différents formats. Il n'a qu'une seule tête, heureusement, et on peut la contrôler à distance. C'est la solution idéale pour ceux qui se perdent toujours dans les câbles! C'est beau, mais c'est quoi? C'est le contrôleur 7-en-1 Control Center 254c de Joytech. Attrape techno Ça fait un bout de temps que Bernard a acheté son téléviseur et son cinéma maison, mais il vient enfin de tout brancher ensemble. En fait, c'est plutôt simple : le fil au bout jaune va dans la prise jaune, le rouge dans le rouge, le blanc dans le blanc. Et voilà! Il a maintenant la télé HD dans son salon! Sauf que règle générale, les câbles qui sont inclus dans la boite lorsqu'on achète un appareil électronique sont de si mauvaise qualité qu'ils vont nuire aux performances de l'appareil. Surtout avec un téléviseur HD, si on utilise un câble vidéo RCA traditionnel, on ne pourra même pas avoir d'image HD à proprement parler! Ça prend au minimum des câbles composantes, et au mieux, un câble HDMI.
