Alana co-founded Figure (NASDAQ: FIGR), a multi-billion dollar public FinTech company, and Provenance Blockchain, the leading public layer 1 for real-world assets. Figure isnโt the only company Alana has launched: she is also the brainchild behind Digital Currency Groupโs subsidiary HQ Digital, a next-generation security and investment platform where she worked with the worldโs preeminent digital assets, blockchain, and DeFi entrepreneurs and investors.
Professional Superpower
Alana knows how to take a company from zero-to-one. She has a sixth sense when it comes to early-stage operations and investing. Her innate ability to strategically identify areas of opportunity has allowed her to successfully launch and run multiple multi-billion dollar companies.
