Crypto leadership & talent: Evolution of control functions – Dawn Capital’s Dan Chaplin offers an investor’s perspective on the recent challenges facing the digital assets industry

In this episode of our series, “Crypto leadership & talent: Evolution of control functions,” part of the Heidrick & Struggles Leadership Podcast, Heidrick & Struggles’ Guy Shaul and Aliceson Robinson speak to Dan Chaplin, a partner and leader of digital assets at technology investment firm Dawn Capital. Chaplin’s investment portfolio stretches across B2B fintech and includes businesses such as Tink, Billie, Access FinTech and OpenGamma, but he has specific investments in digital assets that include Copper and Elwood technology. Chaplin shares where he thinks certain parts of the industry have gone wrong, how he thinks some of the executives, management teams, and boards need to evolve, and his perspective on the common criticism that there's a lack of governance controls and oversight in the digital assets industry. He also discusses how the recent collapse of Signature Bank and SVB will impact the ecosystem, how engagement from regulators is changing, and what leadership capabilities and qualities he thinks are important for organizations to be bringing on board as they chart the next chapter for digital assets.
