Jacob Kobler, CEO of consola.finance said, “After working with over 100 companies at Boston Consulting Group, I realized that the digital financial transformation in web2 was difficult, but when dealing with DAOs, DApps and NFT platforms as Crypto Product Lead at Bitpanda, I witnessed first-hand that the complexity increases tremendously in web3. The current pool of crypto-native companies encountering significant shortcomings in crypto bookkeeping, accounting, and reporting is huge and only growing Existing solutions do not offer the level of quality and functionalities that businesses need, which discourages them from trusting and adopting this growing technology. What we’re building at consola.finance will change the game.”
