In this episode of #Alphapreneurs, host ๐ฅ๐ฎ๐๐ต๐ฎ๐ป ๐๐น๐ฒ๐ฒ๐บ sits down with Joe David, founder of Nephos Group and Nephos Global among the first crypto-focused accounting firms in the UK and UAE . Joe breaks down how he went from a โphotocopier boyโ with no clear path, to building a thriving international firm that helps businesses manage crypto, wealth, and compliance all with clarity and ethics.
๐ก In this episode, you'll learn how crypto accounting really works (without the hype), what it takes to build trust in a misunderstood industry, and how Joe scaled globally while keeping his family and team grounded. He also shares tips for entrepreneurs eyeing Dubai, thoughts on Web3 regulation, why processes matter more than perfection and how fitness and mentorship keep him sharp through it all.
