Founder Story with Zhenya Tsvetnenko

Zhenya Tsvetnenko joins us at the Bloom lab to talk about his journey as an entrepreneur.

Zhenya is a big name in the start-up industry; he was the national recipient of the 2010 Ernst and Young, Entrepreneur of the Year Award, as well as the 2011 Western Australian Business News 40 under 40 award.

Zhenya pioneered SMS gateway technology, and was Google’s largest global advertising partner in 2007. In 2013, Zhenya co-founded DigitalX, the world’s first publicly traded and listed digital currency company. Now called Digital X Limited, the company focuses on the money transfer sector whilst still utilising Blockchain technology to underpin its software. More recently in 2014, Zhenya founded Mpire Media, a performance based online advertising business which generates revenues of over $11 million annually.

Zhenya will talk about his experience as an entrepreneur, including the challenges he faced and his advice for other young entrepreneurs.

There will be an opportunity for audience Q&A.

This is a FREE Bloom event.
