Fractional Head of DeFi / RWA

Executive-level leadership, without a full-time hire

The Fractional Head of DeFi / RWA offering is designed for organizations that need senior strategic leadership to structure, launch, or scale DeFi and Real-World Asset initiatives — without committing to a full-time executive hire.

This is a temporary, high-impact executive role,
focused on strategy, not execution.

Who this is for

This service is a strong fit if you are:

Launching a strategic DeFi or RWA initiative
Building internal capabilities in a complex, fast-moving domain
Lacking senior leadership with real DeFi / RWA experience
Preparing a critical launch, investment, or board decision

If you are looking for:

A full-time executive
Operational management
Hands-on technical execution

→ This is not the right engagement.

The problem

Many organizations face the same challenge

DeFi & RWA initiatives are too strategic to delegate
Too complex to "figure out on the fly"
Too risky to leave without senior ownership

Hiring a full-time executive is:

ExpensiveSlowOften premature

The Fractional model provides immediate senior expertise, without long-term commitment.
