🚨Speaker Announcement🚨
Ashley Cleveland is a Global Strategist, economist, and founder of Africa-focused investment and relocation platforms that have supported over 100 diaspora families and entrepreneurs building lives and businesses across the continent. Her work sits at the intersection of African political economy, diaspora capital, and sovereign relocation.
She has advised investors, partnered with legal and financial institutions across Southern and East Africa, and collaborated with Pan-African policy bodies focused on diaspora engagement and economic self-determination.
While not a Bitcoin developer, her expertise lies in how money systems succeed or fail in the real world, particularly in post-colonial and emerging markets.
Ashley approaches Bitcoin through the lens of sovereignty, trust, and lived adoption, asking not whether Bitcoin works in theory, but why it may be necessary in practice for Africa’s economic future.
