Introducing: The Spartan Group
A decade ago, a whitepaper was released that would kickstart the emergence of a new sector and asset class. Today, the crypto asset class consists of much more than just bitcoin, the cryptocurrency that started it all.
Despite its nascency, this asset class has already developed into a teeming and diverse ecosystem comprising smart contract protocols, stablecoins, financial platforms and DApps, all with the singular goal of creating a fairer and more transparent paradigm for finance, supply chain, gaming, social media, and virtually all verticals that our Internet today touches.
As promising new narratives such as Fat Protocols, Web 3.0 and Open Finance begin to surface from the work of leading developers and operators, challenges familiar and new begin to arise.
For founders and developers, these include questions around managing growth for decentralized products and understanding regulatory compliance. For investors, these include lack of tested valuation frameworks and difficulty of cross-disciplinary due diligence.
The Spartan Group was founded to help address these challenges as a new wave of institutional players begin to enter the crypto world.
We are a location-agnostic boutique advisory and fund specializing in early blockchain projects. Our founders are Goldman Sachs alumni with over 50 years of experience in investment research, public market investing, venture capital, private equity, equity derivatives and financial advisory.
Our experience in investing in Internet companies and a diverse range of public market securities gives us a unique edge in understanding the dynamic crypto landscape.
