Project Manager & Ambassador

I'm Julien Paredes, a seasoned Blockchain & Metaverse Consultant and Strategic Advisor, deeply immersed in the digital transformation of today's business landscape. My journey in the metaverse reached a pinnacle as the Partnerships Manager at Boson Protocol, where we pioneered the world's first Metaverse Fashion Week, collaborating with iconic brands like Tommy Hilfiger, adidas, Lacoste, IKKS and more.

Before diving into the digital realm, I dedicated over a decade to empowering civil societies through NGOs, touching on education, governance, agriculture, healthcare, and the economy. My advocacy extended to the halls of the EU Parliament and the French Assembly, where I lobbied for citizen-centric policies.

As an entrepreneur, I co-founded a start-up that revolutionized fundraising for NGOs by harnessing the power of video games & eSports, leading to significant partnerships with industry giants like RIOT Games.

Since 2013, my blockchain odyssey has seen me don multiple hats as a Project Manager, Advisor, and Consultant, honing a robust understanding of blockchain mechanics and adoption strategies.

I launched Wikiverse, a community-led web3 educational directory, further cementing my commitment to making blockchain technology accessible and comprehensible to all.

During my time at Boson Protocol, I spearheaded partnerships in the Metaverse & Web3 spaces, leading to the groundbreaking launch of PORTAL in Decentraland and the inception of the first-ever Fashion Week in the Metaverse.

Most recently, I've led strategic partnerships at Tropee, empowering creators to engage with their communities through NFTs and driving forward the notion that every digital interaction should be as rewarding as it is engaging.

Now, with APE IN VERSE, I've steered strategies that champion user privacy and deliver exceptional experiences, navigating the complexities of Web3 to bring our clients' ambitious visions to life. From ideation to fruition, I ensure that every project resonates with our clients' goals and exceeds their expectations.

In every role, I bring a wealth of experience and a passion for innovation, always looking to the horizon for the next breakthrough that will shape our digital future.
