Summary
Nicole is a media and technology executive with a 30 year background in startups (early founder in 3 San Francisco IPOs: Realtor.com, Lycos, Mypoints), venture, interactive marketing, and social entrepreneurship with an emphasis on digital and emerging tech. She is a visionary leader in scale and growth strategy, strategic partnerships and alliances, sales and business development, opportunity, and deal creation, and monetization and revenue optimization. Nicole’s company, Casanova Ventures, uses their Art of Leverage Advisement and Connection Curation to catalyze some of the biggest businesses, lead the growth on cutting edge emerging technologies, and give the next leaders of our time the resources and relationships they need to make their biggest impact. Because of their access to unique deal flow, Casanova Ventures is often asked to source and vet technology for the largest corporations and investors and provide insights on market trends. Nicole has cultivated a network of other Superconnectors she leverages and many of their current deals are the next emerging technologies at the intersection of Bitcoin, Self Sovereign Identity, The Spatial Web, AI, Blockchain, Space, Sports, Advertising, Music, Media, Gaming, eSports, Influencer Marketing and All Things Digital. That said, you can name almost any industry from Clean Energy to Regenerative Agriculture, Fintech to Healthtech, or Luxury Travel to Real Estate, and Nicole has likely advised a handful of companies and has a robust network. Some say she's a Connectrix or an Elephant Hunter. Many call her Genie because she granted their wishlist. Her CXO, Investor, Entrepreneur, Influencer, Athlete, Artist, and Changemaker access is unprecedented and she thrives on creating connection. She's here to Shift The Game and Power the People so that humanity can exhale and breathe together. An all out advocate for serving rather than selling, she believes that when we cultivate great relationships we develop the best businesses.
