Striga Dashboard: From B2C to B2B and Beyond

Striga Dashboard Interface

I spent my final year with Striga in Estonia, where we achieved something remarkable: becoming one of the first companies to obtain a Virtual Asset License under Estonia's new crypto regulations. During this pivotal time, I led the development of the Striga Dashboard, a comprehensive B2B platform that would connect us with hundreds of EU companies.
