IAMX – Own your Identity

https://iamx.id Own your identity. IAMX is a unique, and innovative implementation of Self Sovereign Identity (SSI)

Identity, and the protection of it, has never been more important. Taking control of your identity in a way that both safeguards and makes the verification process for online services simpler is a classic ‘win win’.

Currently, we are all expected to fill in forms online, do an Identity or KYC process over and over. This is both time consuming and cumbersome. Importantly, after completing the process you have ‘lost control’ of where your data is stored, who can access it and who is keeping it safe. Additionally. 1,4 billion people in the world are unable to prove their identity and therefore lack access to vital services including healthcare, social protection, education and finance.

IAMX delivers a real ID that you own.

MELD

MELD is an open-source, non-custodial liquidity protocol for borrowing fiat (USD and EUR) and earning yield on deposits. The MELD token can be staked and is used for voting on the governance of the protocol.

MELD offers significant capital efficiency gains in lending and borrowing compared to both centralized blockchain solutions and traditional fintech. Running on a 3rd generation blockchain, transactions are inexpensive and high speed while being secured with more than $50 billion in Cardano (ADA).

Built on top of the Cardano blockchain allows us to capitalize on transaction efficiency, which drastically reduces fees (more than 99%) compared to ETH-based solutions.

Composability or “Money Legos” is the openness of the protocol to be used with other decentralized finance (DeFi) products. This is critical for MELD in market adoption and to be a contributor to the crypto economy. We are working with several leading DeFi services to connect their functionality to MELDs.

MELD is the first decentralized protocol that brings fiat loan capabilities to crypto. Move between crypto and fiat positions with ease, take out loans and retain full control of your digital assets.

Alena Collinson – Psychologist

Alena, my wife, is a practising psychologist dealing with clients for both personal reasons (e.g. relationships, trauma, emotional issues) and business related reasons (e.g. career aspiration, business development, staff motivation etc.)

As her own business adapts, evolves and changes it was clear that a new online presence was needed to demonstrate her range of services, sell her products, book consultations etc.

Developing websites has been integral to my working life, and so I was delighted to be able to provide a full e-commerce platform to allow this need to be fulfilled.

One key complication is that Alena speaks Russian as her first language, and so do her clients, therefore any site needed to accommodate automatic language/location detection, and control over translations used (inevitably ‘automatic’ translations have poor choice of words or contain inconsistencies)

The website, and the e-commerce platform is available at https://alenacollinson.com

I detail this project here, not because I’m specifically seeking work to build websites, but more to demonstrate that if needed I can do so, and certainly can improve and enhance web presence for my clients – i.e. I know what I’m talking about!

CloudRPO Malta Ltd

With the global recruitment market worth some $60bn per year, it’s somewhat surprising that the industry has no formal platform or mechanism in place to bring some order and uniformity to it. Recruitment strategy is arguably one of the key ingredients that lead to a business’s success, the ability to attract, and retain, high quality staff is paramount, however many companies take a seemingly adhoc approach either by advertising directly or by limiting themselves to dealing with one, or a small selection of recruitment agencies.

CloudRPO is a revolutionary ecosystem that organises all employers dealings with recruiters.

The proprietary technology is human-free, completely transparent and enables the user to simply search or request talent, thus reducing the time to hire, whilst giving complete control over the cost and process.

I welcomed the opportunity to work within the team operating, managing and overseeing Cloud RPO Malta, and look after the Maltese market specifically.

Eco-Donut (Electric Boats) Project

Since moving to Malta I have met a variety of interesting people with a broad range of exciting ideas. One such was this inspirational character who has an established operation and was desperately seeking inward investment for expansion into new markets. Working together I assisted creating an Investor Memorandum (IM) to aid the process of attracting this much desired external finance stream. The operation is currently in its expansion phase having moved from Malta to Florida, leaving the established business in Abu Dhabi. There are still investment opportunities for this client and I’d be happy to discuss with any potential investor the scheme, the returns and the business plan generally.

New Connections

The new connections project provides an exclusive opportunity to visit a hand-picked venue ideally suited for a holiday or vacation, then using people skills from within the team invites paying guests to the venue to explore whatever the destination has to offer, in to company of like minded people. The service offered is neither a dating agency or a holiday package. The invitation to each event is based on a profile of the interested candidates willing to participate. Venues are hand picked by the team, as are the guests and a full yet relaxed schedule of events are provided for the duration.

Soft Wash cleaning and sanitation

As an established business, PCCOM Ltd, or more specifically company director Koorush Amel, pictured above, was looking to break into new markets.

Following an in depth consultation during which various I proposed new directions and strategies we discussed at length the options available and agreed that all could yield the desired new market opportunities and business direction.

The real work though started by focusing on one specific area initially. Following some weeks of ‘behind the scenes’ activity, registering on procurement portals, speaking with key decision makers, working up target audiences, a new strand for enquiries for the company services was established.

This project is ongoing and under continual review with the other suggested routes discussed in the first consultation in the pipeline for delivery.

Malta Fitness Website

Meeting the founder of this interesting concept online initially, we quickly struck up a rapport and I found myself volunteering my assistance towards this innovative project because of its simple yet powerful appeal. Essentially the outline of the website and business is simple in terms of being an exhaustive directory of gymnasiums, fitness centres, well-being practitioners and healthy eating outlets. Simple to use interface, with a vast range of tips for healthy eating and active lifestyles. I have a small but interesting continued role in this quite brilliant project.

The website is now live at GymsMalta.Com
