ABOUT MICHELE IMBIMBO

In 2017, I burnt my ships. I left a stable corporate job with no Plan B — only a vision: that digital assets could unlock real value.So I launched my first company, building the world’s first digital autograph platform. But just months into the journey, I knew it wasn’t enough. We had created something innovative, yes — but not yet revolutionary.Then came a twist of fate (and good timing).On June 17, 2017, I stumbled upon this Mashable article about CryptoPunks — my first real encounter with NFTs. That date is special to me: it’s my wife’s birthday, the day AS Roma won the Scudetto, and when I rode the Mugello circuit on a Ducati with my idol Troy Bayliss. And it became the day I discovered the future.A few months later, I bought my first CryptoKitties. That moment changed everything.From that point on, NFTs became the red thread of my professional journey — from MotoGP to Serie A, from Formula 1 and Lewis Hamilton to high-end art partnerships and global brand campaigns. It became clear: NFTs were not a trend — they were a tectonic shift.Today, my company has evolved into a boutique.I help visionary brands and investors navigate the Web3 revolution.I’ve co-founded NFT Rome, introduced NFTs to one of Italy’s most iconic museums, established an Academy, and am now launching Valarys — a Digital Wealth Advisory boutique for a new generation of wealth builders.I’ve burnt the ships.I’ll only return when I can sail home with the fleet of the future.
