In this episode of The Heidrick & Struggles Leadership Podcast, Heidrick & Struggles’ Guy Shaul and Tom Clarke are joined by Najam Kidwai and Michael Zhao, cofounders and managing partners at C1, a newly launched fund focused on secondary investments and digital-asset-related companies and infrastructure. Kidwai and Zhao discuss the genesis of C1 advisors and the conditions that led to the timing being right. They also share where they believe think the crypto industry has gone wrong in recent months, what they will be expecting their portfolio of companies to focus on in order to navigate regulation today and as it evolves, and what they think the industry needs to be conscious of when thinking about the right talent for leadership teams.  Hosted on Acast.
