Clarisse Hagège is the CEO and Co-founder of Dfns, where she leads the development of programmable, cloud-native Wallets-as-a-Service (WaaS). Her mission is to bridge the gap between traditional finance and Web3 by providing banks and fintechs with secure, decentralized key management powered by Multi-Party Computation (MPC). Clarisse’s perspective is shaped by a decade in the heart of global finance at Goldman Sachs, Merrill Lynch, and Crédit Agricole CIB, where she served as the youngest-ever Chief of Staff to the CEO. She founded Dfns to solve the "single point of failure" in digital custody, creating the resilient infrastructure required for institutional adoption.
