A Note from AdLunam Co-founder Nadja Bester:
As we close the books on the third quarter of 2023, it’s clear we’re navigating through extraordinary times. A prolonged bear market and global disarray have led to a whirlpool of uncertainties in the web3 landscape, not least due to the sudden uprising of AI. Amidst these challenges, our mission at AdLunam to reshape the investment ecosystem has only strengthened.
This quarter saw us form invaluable partnerships that reflect our commitment to build bridges across industry sectors and continents.
