Here's what you can expect from this fireside chat:
Steven Walbroehl is the co-founder and CTO at Halborn — an industry-leading blockchain solutions firm for enterprise-grade digital assets, providing world-class, end-to-end security. In 2022, Halborn completed a $90 million Series A funding round. No small feat.
Steven brings a rare combination of deep enterprise cybersecurity expertise and hands-on blockchain experience:
🔹 He understands security at a military-grade level
🔹 He thinks like an attacker
🔹 He understands enterprise infrastructure
With top-tier credentials in ethical hacking, risk management, cloud architecture, and information security, he’s uniquely qualified to talk about blockchain from a risk and trust perspective. Having spent years learning how systems fail — he now uses that knowledge to help companies build blockchain solutions that don’t.
Steven will be interviewed by Fritz Spencer, Outsourced Services for Startups at EisnerAmper, and an early adopter and advocate for Blockchain.
Whether you're building in fintech, managing digital infrastructure, or simply trying to understand where the future of trust is headed in a complex digital world, this conversation will give you practical insight into one of the most important shifts of our time — from leaders who are ahead of the game.
See you there!
