Hiroki aka ‘The Ninja’ came to visit the NEM Team in Melbourne last week and we had the opportunity to sit down with him and learn more about NEM Japan and also show him what we’ve been working on. He also met with some of our Ecosystem Members in Australia and learnt more about the projects that are utilising the NEM Blockchain.

Hiroki is currently the Country Leader for NEM Japan and has been working with NEM since April 2018 and was previously volunteering before that. His focus is on educating the community by hosting NEM101 meetups in different cities around Japan and to increase the popularity of NEM payments. He is now using what he’s learnt in Melbourne to work on expanding his team to focus on growing business adoption.

He previously worked at adidas Japan as a Product Development Co-ordinator and helped manage trade shows. He discovered NEM through his interest of Bitcoin and blockchain technology and was convinced that NEM could not only be used for transactions but could also become a platform for social change.
