👤
SeniorRichard Ells is a serial tech entrepreneur and hands-on coder with nearly three decades of building internet businesses from the ground up, currently leading AnyTask and Electroneum. He founded Electroneum, a mobile-first cryptocurrency that raised $40M in its ICO and scaled to over a million users by leveraging partnerships to bring crypto payments to mobile users in developing markets. Prior ventures include a 20-year-old digital agency and Retortal, a multilingual social media management platform, demonstrating a rare blend of product marketing savvy and technical execution.
