Besides that, I design and organize work & leisure experiences in the travel & culture sector and I help students of tourism gain practical experience while discovering new educational models.
Previously, I co-founded a startup - a marketplace for local experiences - called LocalsFromZero, which we merged with Fairbnb.coop. Since the start, I’ve been focusing on building community-based tourism combined with meaningful experiences. I’m passionate about DAOs as the future of work and community organization.

Bough $30 of some erc20 token in 2017 & the rest is history. Fell down the rabbit hole of web3 and started my own marketing agency, which I transformed into an HR & consulting agency in 2022.
I love working with all kinds of web3 startups & my past clients range from DeFi platforms to NFT projects and a few years back even meme tokens (so I know a marketing trick or two).
What value can I provide?
👥 Discord community for web3 talent and companies
I created a Discord community for web3 builders - from talent looking for work to companies looking to hire. We are striving to build a platform for people to connect, share ideas and build a better future together. Currently, we have 100 members and are growing quickly. This is what gives me access to a pool of top web3 talent. A great resource for any web3 company that needs to fill a position or is looking for a contractor.
👨💻 Web3 consulting
With 4+ years of experience in web3, my deep understanding of the market & its behavior will give you an unfair edge over your competition. I have a very different approach to consulting than other web3 or tech consulting agencies, since my work is result-oriented. I cover everything from marketing startegy to web3 specific tips, and I also include exact action steps for your team to follow. If that's not enough, I also do hands-on work where I guide or mentor your team to reach KPIs faster, properly analyze different metrics & scale your web3 startup.
🌐 My network
Throughout the years I was able to amass a great number of connections that I am able to leverage for growth, fundraising, development & a lot more. With consulting you also get direct access to my network, whenever you need it - I am here to help you conquer the web3 space and sweep your competition.
👨🏫 Personal brand
In 2022 I also started my LinkedIn page and Twitter, where I regularly talk just about anything web3-related, from tips and tricks to my web3 experiences. Everyone is able to follow and join me on this journey, to build a better future together.
If you want to work with me or my agency you can book a call directly through www.web3connected or shoot me a message here on LinkedIn. I also love meeting new people and discussing anything web3-related so if you have something on your mind - message me!

Communicator. Ponderer. Solution seeker. Empath. Creator. Working smarter!
I am proactive, I'm eager to improve everything in and around me and when I see something needs to be done, I do it (unless it falls in the not-urgent-and-not-important category. But if I have time, I even do those...).
I am a firm believer in working smarter. (!!!) Think 4-hour work week (book).
Meaning I often only see room for problem solving and solutions (which is not everyone's cup of tea) and when I lack the knowledge I make up for it with enthusiasm and diligence.
I'd rather spend 3 hours or a day learning how to code and coding now than being frustrated by menial tasks on a monthly basis. (And I did this.)
P.S. LinkedIn should have a book section. If you have a good book suggestion, please message me 🙂
If I can easily learn something about myself or others from it, I'll probably like it.
I recommend: Citadelle (also known as The Wisdom of The Sands by Antoine de-Saint Exupéry), Predictably Irrational (by Dan Ariely), What Do You Care What Other People Think? (by Richard Feynman), Games People Play (by Eric Berne), Limitless (Jim Kwik), When - the scientific secrets of perfect timing (Daniel H. Pink) and 4-Hour Work Week (by Timothy Ferriss).

I’m the founder of a next-gen Web3 creative studio: Social Humans
We work with a unique type of clients: Gen Z brands that are as nimble and ambitious as we are, and determined to scale their brand using virtual influencers.
But first and foremost: we’re creating viral content, and high ROI creatives for performance marketing, focusing on one thing and doing it well.
As we entered the space, we created our own fashion brand, and on the launch day generated $100k, in the matter of hours.
Before that I’ve had a performance marketing agency & here’s our track-record In a nutshell:
Total revenue generated - $7.9m
Total ad spend - $1.8m
I'm also a big fan of books and all the Gen Z shenanigans.

Founder & Project Manager at Treecelet. Creating the world a better place through entrepreneurship by planting trees.
I am Miha Hrovat, a 28-year-old Slovenian, a co-founder and manager of a tree-planting project called Treecelet. I believe entrepreneurs are superheroes of today's world. My mission is to maximize the positive impact on nature, animals, and people through entrepreneurship.
I have two great passions: firstly, making the world a better place, and secondly, entrepreneurship. Since I was a kid, I have been looking for ways to impact our planet positively. In addition, I was intrigued by morals and ethics so much that I studied philosophy and successfully finished my degree in 2017.
That was the time when I started taking serious steps into entrepreneurship. That step was inevitable since my family has lived with entrepreneurship for the last 60 years. Treecelet connected everything I am:
• A compassionate individual who wants to help.
• A competitive sportsman.
• An ambitious young man with an entrepreneurial mind.

I help businesses build problem solving skills and develop sustainable business models.
I'm a dedicated servant to the following business principles:
1. FAIRNESS: To me, business isn’t about egocentric financial goals, but about making the world a better place. That means focusing on value and considering all impacts on society, economy and environment.
2. UNIQUENESS: I believe true success lies in bringing your authentic unique self to the table and not just following other people's norms and rules.
3. NO BULLS**T: Many companies have mastered the art of bending reality in order present themselves in the best light possible. Not my cup of tea. I believe in honesty and transparency.
Those principles spell FUN. Which is a nice spice to add given the fact that we spend about half of our time awake doing business.
Cheers!
