On today's tech podcast, I talk to Benjamin Bilski from the NagaGroup. Fans of the crypto and blockchain space will probably be aware of the NAGA Coin but I wanted to find out more about his story and vision for the Naga group.

Founded in 2015, NAGA successfully IPO'd in 2017 and then acquired the world's second largest ICO investor base with more than 63.000 subscribers in the NAGA token sale (raised > 50m USD) just a few months after the company's debut on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange.

The NAGA Group AG is backed by some of the world’s largest and most prestigious shareholders, such as mainland China’s largest private multi-hundred-billion investment company, FOSUN Group, the German Stock Exchange (Deutsche Börse AG), as well as Germany’s second oldest bank, Hauck & Aufhaeuser (founded 1796).
