RealFevr interviews new CCO
RealFevr’s undeniable growth demands not only manpower but also true talent in order to scale in the right direction and become an industry leader, nationally and internationally.?
For this reason, a new core role was created to ensure that the organization’s interests are safeguarded in all its business activities and that the company’s policies are adequately implemented and followed in every single transaction with customers and partners.
Bernardo Azevedo took the position as RealFevr’s first Chief Commercial Officer and is already on the field contributing to ensure the company’s ongoing success.?
He graduated in Business Management and worked for the last 9 years in multinationals in the FMCG area (Heineken and Danone). For the last 3 years, Bernardo was responsible for sponsorship contracts negotiation and activation plans at Heineken Group, leading all contracts with partners such as FPF and SLBenfica with the leading brand in football (Sagres). Needless to say, he is absolutely passionate about sports.
From this point on, he will be officially responsible for IPs acquisition, sponsorship closing and activation,? helping partners (both gaming and sports related) transition from Web2 to Web3, and the overall organization of the commercial department that is expected to grow exponentially in the next months.?
To mark the occasion we spoke with Bernardo about his motivation for joining the team, his projections about the business and future developments of the department. The interview went as follows:
What made you accept this new commercial challenge?
During the latest years of my career, I have been fortunate enough to do something I love for a living. Working in the sports industry has been an enriching experience and if there is another topic that interests me deeply nowadays, that would be the Web 3 industry and blockchain technology. This new role at RealFevr represents, in my perspective, the perfect opportunity to balance these two fascinating worlds. The possibility of reconciling both as well as being part of a company in evident growth within an area that I consider to be extremely important were the reasons why I fully embraced this new challenge.
What is it about RealFevr and the team that inspires you?
There is something special about integrating a startup that has recently joined the list of the top 50 fastest-growing startups in Portugal over the past two years. Everyone from the RealFevr team is providing a valuable contribution to innovation in a market that is growing every single day and I am truly inspired by people who are not afraid to try something new.? The possibility of being part of such an ambitious project, surrounded by the best people in each respective area, makes me face this new challenge with enormous confidence.?

What are some potential challenges in the business side of the crypto industry?
The novelty factor of the nature of Realfevr’s product is a challenge itself. Anything new breeds mistrust, and crypto/NFTs are no exception. That applies to new customer acquisitions as well as new partnership settlements.?That’s why, at RealFevr, our mission is to educate the community and allow a smooth passage between the Web2 and Web3 worlds. Without education, there will never be user massification and it’s our responsibility, as industry innovators, to bring this knowledge and information to people in the easiest manner possible.?
What will be the focus of the commercial department in the next 6 months?
The opportunities in the Web3 space for RealFevr, at this specific point in time, are endless. Naturally, our focus on the acquisition of new IPs will not fade. This has and will continue to be an extremely important expansion element of the company. On the other hand, we must not forget about the gaming industry. With the development of FEVR Battle Arena, establishing strong partnerships and alliances in the gaming vertical is key.Finally, as our ecosystem grows stronger, so does the influence of our project in the space. Therefore, analyzing and establishing new partnerships within the Web3 realm while maintaining the “quality above quantity” motto becomes increasingly important.
