International management consulting firm Agile Dynamics has launched a new label dedicated to blockchain advisory services.

Branded as ‘Agile Dynamics Tech’, the new arm will work with clients to conceptualise, design, build and implement blockchain-based solutions that benefit “both business and society”, according to a release by the firm.

Led by a core team of tech innovators, consultants, and designers, spearheaded by the co-founding trio Paul Lalovich, Emilija Vukovic and Ivan Bjelajac, Agile Dynamics Tech will bring together expertise in digital assets, blockchain networks, cryptocurrencies, and Web3 to help clients build proof of concepts and bring prototypes to life.

Agile Dynamics launches blockchain advisory label

Agile Dynamics Tech launches with an already established track record in the space – all three co-founders have extensive experience with blockchain innovations. Lalovich for instance is the founder of Synthetic Equity, a venture focused on harnessing the potential of distributed ledger technology and crypto assets through the tokenization of ideas and work.

Vukovic is a thought leader in blockchain technology and a regular speaker at conferences on the topic, while Bjelajac is a serial entrepreneur in the technology industry and is currently building a company focused on applying blockchain transactions within the payments realm.

“Our new venture works with ecosystem partners to deliver immediate and measurable outcomes at clients. We work with corporates as well as mid-sized businesses and start-ups,” said Lalovich, who also is a partner at Agile Dynamics.

“We form comprehensive partnerships and assemble a multi-disciplinary range of talented individuals to magnify our collective influence and help our clients launch fully operational solutions right from day one,” he added.

Teaming up with parent company Agile Dynamics, which operates out of Abu Dhabi and Singapore, the new tech advisory subsidiary will further help clients with taking care of the human capital side of blockchain innovation. “We help organisations deliver their breakthrough Web3 innovations by putting into place the right capabilities and creating the critical mass required for success.”

According to Lalovich, Agile Dynamics Tech has already hit the ground running with a number of launching engagements being worked on.
