Christopher Grilhault des Fontaines

Since 2010, I’ve co-founded 4 companies, raised $15M, hired +40 employees, pioneered a socially innovative, alternative venue in France (a cooperative organizing 250 free concerts per year, selling 100% organic & fair trade food, ranked 1 of 334 in South-West of France on TripAdvisor), built a social network for entrepreneurs with a community of 30k+ users, and a networking app for professionals ranking me #182 among the Top Networking App Founders on Crunchbase in 2020.

Today, I’m the Co-founder & COO of Dfns (Future40, Techstars '21), a cybersecurity company that builds custody SaaS protocol for web3 apps. Think of it as a developer tool providing secure cloud for crypto. We are on a mission to bring serenity to DeFi by eliminating new blockchain risks and making crypto transactions easier, faster, more affordable, and compliant with existing regulations.

Blockchain is changing finance much like internet changed communication—forever. It's an eye-opening technology that is revolutionizing the way we trade and transfer money as worldwide transactions become cheaper, faster, more open and more reliable.

We are building the future of crypto banking, brick by brick.
