About

Mark C Allen is a seasoned technology veteran with over 25 years of experience in building software applications for SAAS startups that have scaled to millions of users.

His specialty is in internet technology innovation, particularly with early-stage companies.

He has been at the forefront of internet technologies since their early days, creating some of the earliest e-commerce applications in Canada. In the early days of mobile, he was involved in creating a mobile payment platform used by several professional sports franchises in North America. With the migration to cloud hosting providers, he has become a sought-after expert in building web application infrastructure in AWS.

As a senior engineering leader, Mark has scaled up and mentored software engineering teams for startups such as Hootsuite and Taplytics. He focuses on building an inclusive culture where everyone is expected to lead and asks his teams to commit to their deliverables.

Mark has worked in the NFT space for the last year, building tooling to help creators mint their first NFTs and market them to collectors.

He has combined web2 and web3 to create identity and trust between creators and collectors. He uses the distributed storage of the blockchain and the trust of identity provided by social platforms to build applications, making web3 easier to use for people who are new to crypto.
