Blockchain platform Geeq Corporation has appointed co-founder and chief development officer Dr. Stephanie So as its new CEO.
Founded by a group of highly qualified economists and technologists Geeq is a multi-blockchain platform that dramatically lowers the cost of safely transacting value at scale. It is protected by a brand-new, patented consensus mechanism. It is secure enough for extremely sensitive data, quick and affordable enough for IoT, and adaptable enough for any application.
Existing blockchains are constrained by a trade-off between scalability and security. Geeq solves the problem, enabling a completely new class of solutions that unleash the true potential of blockchain for the real world.
Geeq has worked with top data management platforms to offer these solutions to their clients. Geeq is developing a portfolio of user-friendly enterprise applications based on a patented, distinctive protocol that combines best-in-class security with simplified, disruption-free implementation.
With a strategy that eliminates smart contracts and other complications inherent to the leading platforms, Geeq has reduced the risk associated with the implementation of blockchain. Geeq, on the other hand, fills the need for standardised transactions that operate on effective processes with predictable outcomes in blockchain systems.
Some people who perceive blockchain as overly-engineered specialised solutions in search of a problem would be surprised by the broad applicability of certain transactions, such as Geeq’s patented algorithms for atomic swaps. Geeq has created the IP, infrastructure, and business linkages to enable blockchain capabilities for any current enterprise data systems under the steady leadership of founding CEO Ric Asselstine.
Dr. So co-designed the groundbreaking Geeq protocols with Geeq’s chief economist, Dr. John P. Conley. She is a graduate of Princeton University (A.B.) and the University of Rochester (M.A., M.S., Ph.D), and has sought throughout her career to improve outcomes for those experiencing barriers to work or access to services. She is dedicated to providing market solutions that provide more economic autonomy, reduce the costs of participation, increase efficiency, and improve quality of life.
Asselstine pointed out: “I have observed of the biggest worldwide commercial success stories that, at this stage of a company’s evolution, the leader must exhibit three traits: 1. An intimate, intuitive understanding of product market fit. 2. A soaring vision of what is possible. And, 3, this person must have an engine with no off switch.”
“With her profound conviction and passion for Geeq’s transformative potential, Stephanie is uniquely suited to carry the torch in this next phase – she exemplifies all that Geeq audiences will be inspired by,” Asselstine praised So.
So said: “Ric’s experience in bringing technology from R&D to market, and the mental discipline he imbued in our team to ‘make it safe, then make it better’, is the reason Geeq has a sterling reputation for innovation and integrity in the blockchain and crypto world.”
“Ric has kept us grounded in an industry where, with other leadership, it could have been all too easy to have taken a wrong turn. From the beginning, Ric knew Geeq’s technology had to become accepted by both sides of the Web2-Web3 chasm, and he laid the groundwork for Geeq to build for private enterprise while continuing to be aligned with the goals of the Web3 community. I am honored and excited to take the reins as those paths continue to converge,” So added.
Asselstine will remain as Geeq’s chairman of the board.
