Entrepreneur. I'm Founder / CEO of Omise - Payment platform. Founder of OmiseGo, and member of Ethereum Community Fund.

Jun is an entrepreneur and no stranger to the startup world. Prior to founding payments company Omise, he was involved in founding a series of tech companies in Japan mainly in the fields of e-commerce, life log and mobile payments. He has over 16 years of professional experience in web & product design and previously held several management positions with Alpha-do Inc. in Japan.

Currently based in Bangkok, Jun is the full-time CEO of Omise, a multinational payments company currently present in Thailand (HQ), Japan, Singapore and Indonesia that has raised over USD 50M in funding. He has led the company through dramatic growth, from its launch in 2013 to its establishment as one of Southeast Asia's leading online payment platforms.

In 2015, Jun's desire to stay on the pioneering edge of practical tech innovation led to Omise becoming one of the first companies, and the very first financial services company, to join the Ethereum community. In 2017, after over a year of research and development, this culminated in the launch of OmiseGO, the crowd-funded blockchain division of Omise tasked with creating the OMG network, an Ethereum-based public blockchain with the ambitious vision of enabling financial service equity by radically decentralizing value transfer and exchange.

Don Tapscott is one of the world’s leading authorities on the impact of technology on business and society. He has authored 16 books, including Wikinomics: How Mass Collaboration Changes Everything, which has been translated into over 25 languages.

Don has been advancing groundbreaking concepts for over 3 decades. His 1992 bestseller, Paradigm Shift, helped coin this seminal management concept, and The Digital Economy, written in 1995, changed business thinking about the transformational nature of the Internet. Two years later he helped popularize the terms “Net Generation” and “the Digital Divide” in Growing Up Digital. 

Don’s most recent and ambitious book was co-authored with his son, startup CEO and bitcoin governance expert, Alex Tapscott. Blockchain Revolution: How the Technology Behind Bitcoin is Changing the World was published in May 2016 and is, according to Harvard Business School’s Clay Christensen, “the book, literally, on how to survive and thrive in this next wave of technology-driven disruption.” 

In 2017, Don and Alex co-founded the Blockchain Research Institute, whose 70+ projects are the definitive investigation into blockchain strategy, use-cases, implementation challenges and organizational transformations. 

Don is a member of the Order of Canada and is ranked the second most influential management thinker in the world by Thinkers50. He is an Adjunct Professor at INSEAD and Chancellor of Trent University in Ontario. It is hard to imagine anyone who has been more prolific, profound, and influential in explaining today’s technological revolutions and their impact on the world.
