We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Theodore Johns a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.
Alright, Theodore thanks for taking the time to share your stories and insights with us today. Risking taking is a huge part of most people’s story but too often society overlooks those risks and only focuses on where you are today. Can you talk to us about a risk you’ve taken – it could be a big risk or a small one – but walk us through the backstory.
Moving from London, UK, to live in the Dominican Republic. Changing from Art Dealer to Art Consultant for a Tech Company in USA. Joined forces with Authentify Art and brought a concept of transformative technology (Concept) as a positive for the Art Industry. Basically went from whats all wrong with the Art Industry and turned around to create a system to make the industry more trustworthy, transparent and with less Risk. A few years of dire situation with Family and finances and eventually now rising up from the seeds that were planted four years ago.
As always, we appreciate you sharing your insights and we’ve got a few more questions for you, but before we get to all of that can you take a minute to introduce yourself and give our readers some of your back background and context?
The company has innovated a solution for the Art Industry, we are the Risk Solution, the Data Management solution and the Organisational Optimization for the Art Industry. An Industry where Tech is always adopted last.
We’d love to hear a story of resilience from your journey.
Working for a start up without capital behind me. A family to provide for……
How about pivoting – can you share the story of a time you’ve had to pivot?
Moving to the DR and starting all over again at 40 years old.
