About Niamh O’Connell

Niamh has been working in the blockchain space for over 6 years’ – she was part of a founding member team that set up and scaled Deloitte’s blockchain lab for Europe, Middle East and South Africa in 2016. She’s worked on the first ever blockchain prototypes and production implementations that are being used daily today across financial services, food / agriculture, consumer goods, art / luxury and sports.

She also co-founded BlockW in 2018 which creates awareness and fosters inclusivity of blockchain and disruptive technology, running a range of initiatives. She currently co-leads the customer adoption team at Treum, a blockchain and supply chain company backed by ConsenSys.

About Treum

Treum.io, a ConsenSys backed company formed in 2016, is one of the early leaders in the blockchain space. Treum has a demonstrable track record for launching some epic firsts in blockchain including but not limited to implementing the first non-financial use case for tracking oil samples for BHP Billiton, Bait-to-plate tracking of yellowfin Tuna from Fiji to NY with WWF, live auction of tokenized Game worn Jerseys for Sacramento Kings.

Their most recent NFT project, EulerBeats.com, was called “the most genius idea ever” by Mark Cuban. The project advanced the Treum tokenization platform to include a market price discovery mechanism using a bonding curve.

At Treum, we vision universes and metaverses of non fungible everything (NFE), both physical and digital, that trade frictionless and trustlessly with verifiable provenance under radically different and improved market mechanisms. If this vision is exciting and you want to be part of it, join us.
