Partnership & Ecosystem BD | GTM Strategy | Defi & Stablecoin & RWA | Reseacher & Trader | Ex-Avalanche
Hi LinkedIn friends. I'm a results-driven ecosystem growth and partnership strategist with 4+ years of experience scaling blockchain infrastructure, decentralized AI, and RWA projects—especially across APAC. I’ve played key roles in launching go-to-market strategies, onboarding developers and partners, and driving product adoption at leading projects like Avalanche and Mind Network (TGE on Kraken & Binance Perpetuals, FDV $100M). 🚀 How I Drive Growth 1. Ecosystem Strategy & Business Development Execution - Design and execute ecosystem and GTM strategies from 0 to 1 across blockchain, AI, and RWA verticals. - Closed 30+ strategic partnerships with infrastructure providers, restaking protocols, and AI-native applications (e.g., Chainlink, Etherfi, IO.NET, Virtuals). - Drove $4M+ in restaking TVL growth and enabled $2B+ in tokenized governance value via cross-chain integrations with Babylon and EigenLayer. Supported $2M+ in fundraising by onboarding VCs like Animoca Brands and CEiC, aligning investor narratives with tech milestones. 2. Scalable User & Developer Growth - Lead user acquisition, dev engagement, and ecosystem onboarding at scale through data-driven and community-led campaigns. - Launched initiatives like CitizenZ Campaign and AgenticWorld, bringing in 2M+ users, 400K+ deployed AI agents, and 96M+ encrypted on-chain transactions. - Scaled hackathons, builder grants, and ambassador programs across Asia, attracting thousands of developers and early adopters into frontier infrastructure ecosystems. 3. Regional GTM Playbooks & Community Activation - Build and activate region-specific growth playbooks with strong focus on Asia’s crypto markets and user behavior. - Developed localized GTM and community strategies across Southeast Asia, Korea, Japan, and China, leveraging deep media, KOL, and founder networks. - Personally initiated and grew an invite-only AI explorer community with 300+ influential members including VCs, founders. - Drove public presence at global conferences (Token2049, ETHSG ...) to support thought leadership and brand elevation. 🌏 What I’m Looking For I’m excited to join a mission-driven team building frontier infrastructure in blockchain, decentralized AI, or RWA. I thrive in fast-paced, globally distributed environments where I can lead GTM execution, activate ecosystems, and drive adoption—especially in APAC. ⚡️ Let’s Connect! I love collaborating with founders, builders, and global growth leaders. Feel free to connect here or reach me at leonsghk@gmail.com — let’s build something great together.
