E10 - Ben Rose on Marketing in Crypto and Binance in NZ


Listen Later

Ben Rose is the GM of Binance New Zealand. He has a long history of sales, marketing, and growth with New Zealand businesses from start ups to banks like ASB and NIB. 

Last month Binance launched here in the New Zealand market and Ben is tasked with growing the crypto market and *maybe* bringing back our futures trading once Binance is properly licenced. 

In this conversation we touch on marketing, regulation, education and some self sovereign topics like custody and  ownership. I hope you enjoy my conversation with Ben Rose.
