How Clearpoll uses blockchain technology to achieve electoral transparency, Alex Dahan, OpenInfluence founder and Clearpoll advisor

By @SimonCocking great interview with Alex Dahan Founder at OpenInfluence | Forbes 30 Under 30 | Blockchain Investor, Advisor Open Influence

What is your background briefly?

My background is in Entrepreneurship and marketing. I am the founder of OpenInfluence, a leading influencer marketing company with a network of over 800k influencers across all major social platforms. Our work includes campaigns for Disney, H&M, Coca-Cola, Ford, P&G, and Air France.

Does it seem like a logical background to what you do now?

Yes, I believe my resources and expertise in marketing will provide companies with more cost effective alternatives to their marketing goals and objectives

1 min pitch for what you are doing now?

I advise for early-stage blockchain companies, creating mass adoption strategies that educate and engage people to invest and learn more.

Why did you get involved with ClearPoll?

I got involved in the ClearPoll project first as an investor. I loved the project so much I decided to offer my resources to help gain awareness through Influencer marketing.

Why do you think it is such a powerful idea?

ClearPoll is such a powerful idea because it applies blockchain technology to solve the issues centralized polling systems are facing today. By removing intermediaries, ClearPoll is able to log poll results directly on the blockchain, giving users full transparency and unbiased results.

How do you assess which ICOs to advise?

I am very selective with the ICOs I advise for. I start by taking a deep dive into the company’s whitepaper. I look into their business model, how the token functions as a utility, and the feasibility of completing their goals within the roadmap they provide. I look for companies that are disruptive and have low barrier to entry products that can be easily adopted by the average person. Most importantly, I look at the team, their past experiences, and how each individual will contribute to the company’s underlining goal.

How can people find out more about ClearPoll and your work?
