Chief Marketing Officer (CMO)

About Us

Colony is an open source framework for Decentralized Autonomous Organisations (DAOs). We are making it easy for people all over the world to build organizations together, online.

In basic terms, that means Colony lets online communities manage a shared pot of funds towards a common goal. Examples might include a decentralised venture capital fund, or a software development project.

Colony is a distributed team who occasionally (pandemics permitting 😷) convene somewhere in the world to work and hang out together. The rest of the time, we communicate over Discord. It’s a dynamic environment that requires grit, flexibility, self-motivation, and a sense of emoji etiquette.
