MT Advisory in 2016

Posted on August 27, 2016 by benjaminbeller

Two of the industries I’m most interested in are media and telecommunications, which of course comprise two of the three components in traditional TMT grouping.

Bitcoin’s Roadmap to Relevance

Posted on May 1, 2014 by benjaminbeller

My brother sent me the following video, as part of our ongoing discussion regarding the future and place of bitcoin.
