Hi, I'm Sandeep
I help founders and protocols build ecosystems from scratch — before the market catches up.
With 8+ years across Web3, climate tech, and startups, I've learned that real traction often happens at the edges: overlooked markets, early-stage chaos, the moment before things click.
I co-founded BerChain (Berlin's blockchain association), contributed to the COVID-19 Credentials Initiative at Linux Foundation, and helped position organizations as ecosystem leaders — including partnerships with UN agencies and corporates.
I think in systems. I move early. I help you do the same.
Pattern recognition across industries. Calm under chaos. Someone who delivers when the plan falls apart.
I help you see what's coming — and position before the market catches up. Best for founders in Web3, climate tech, or early-stage ventures navigating ambiguity.
Turning ambiguity into structured execution. I take messy, undefined projects and create clarity — from roadmap to delivery.
Bridging corporates and startups to solve real business challenges. I find the right innovators and structure pilots that actually move forward.
Go-to-market strategy and ecosystem partnerships that create traction. I help you find the overlooked angles and the partners who open doors.
Facilitation for teams ready to think differently. I help you prototype fast, fail forward, and move from idea to action — often in a single day.
Let's have a conversation. I'll help you figure out what makes sense for your situation.

In early 2018, while working as an investment associate, I published the Berlin Blockchain Guide — a mapping of the ecosystem's key players. It started as curiosity. It ended up reaching the Berlin Senate and Berlin Partner.
Over six years, I served as volunteer, freelancer, board member, and consultant. Together we grew to 1,500+ community members, hosted 100+ events, and joined CHAISE — an EU grant project on blockchain education.
Turning a non-profit into an important player in Berlin's blockchain ecosystem — learning alongside and enabling some great minds of our generation.
Linux Foundation
At the height of the pandemic, borders were closed and vaccine certificates varied wildly — 20+ different templates issued by governments worldwide. The question: how might we reopen borders safely?
I led Affinidi's partnerships across key standards bodies: Linux Foundation Public Health, W3C, and Decentralized Identity Foundation. Within CCI, I represented Affinidi in the working group tackling credential interoperability.
Systems-level thinking in action: we started by solving for the common good, which later became a revenue engine for the business.
Global Goals Jam & more
Over the years, I've coached teams at hackathons and innovation programs focused on sustainability — including Global Goals Jam (3 years), two summer schools during the pandemic, and Deutsche Nachhaltigkeitspreis.
Think outside the box. Fail often. Prototype quickly. One team I coached started Friday evening, scrapped everything Sunday morning, restarted from scratch — and won the competition that evening.
Helping people discover they can rebuild from zero in a day — and come out stronger.
