New Advisors and Country Rep At Kyber Network
Kyber Network is proud to announce three new appointments in our team!We would like to officially welcome John Ng and Simon Kim, both of whom will be joining Kyber in advisory positions, and Hwisang Kim, who will be acting as our country representative in South Korea. Kyber Network has grown substantially in the last few months, both in headcount and scale of operation. Given the pace of development of the company structure, more supervision by industry veterans is needed to ensure that the company continues its expansion at a healthy pace, and also to avoid common pitfalls that could halt progress.
Simon, John and Hwisang are known figures in their respective industries, and we believe that their connections and experience in their respective domains will be essential in bringing Kyber Network to the next level.
Advisors
John Ng Pangilinan
We first met John Ng through our partnership with Signum Capital, the well known crypto fund in Singapore. From the start we knew that he would be an incredible asset and source of guidance for Kyber Network.
After leaving Standard Chartered Bank years ago, John was involved in creating multiple companies. He built a recruitment firm, a design and retail furniture company, a property agency, and a pet grooming salon. The most recent challenge that John took on was the creation of Makan Bus, a Singaporean hop on and hop off food tour.
It is clear that all of John’s businesses were fueled by a true passion and drive for success. We look forward to his insightful contribution to Kyber Network.
Simon Kim
Simon Kim has extensive connections and experience in both the business and social sides of blockchain.
Simon is currently a venture partner at SoftBank Ventures, advising on blockchain investing strategies. He is also the CEO and Partner of Hashed, a leading crypto fund based in South Korea. As a blockchain evangelist and the organizer of Hashed Lounge, a premier Blockchain Seoul meetup community, he is deeply immersed in Korean crypto communities.
Prior to Hashed, Simon worked as an entrepreneur, co-founding multiple companies. He also served as Chief Product Officer at Knowre, the ed-tech startup named the World’s Top 10 Most Innovative Company in Education by Fast Company.
We look forward to bringing his charisma and knowledge to Kyber Network.
Country Representative
Hwisang Kim
Hwisang Kim has been an integral part of the Korean blockchain scene since its inception in early 2015, and will surely be a crucial and effective representative for Kyber’s Korean community.
Hwisang is currently Chief Investment Officer and Partner at Hashed, the leading Korean-based crypto fund. He previously worked in product planning, business planning, and technical marketing in SK Hynix and SK Telecom. Since early 2015, Hwisang has been actively investing in blockchain and is credited for founding some of the earliest Korean crypto communities.
As an active advisor to numerous blockchain projects around the world, Hwisang’s understanding of the Korean and global blockchain scene will be an immensely valuable contribution to Kyber Network.
