S10 Bonus: The Decentralized Data Engine: Monetizing Enterprise AI Datasets and Regulating Model Training Access with Don Gossen, Co-Founder & CEO of Nevermined
Mar 20, 2025 · Season 10 · 32 min
Payments for AI Agent Transactions
Don Gossen is Canadian, but at this point, in name only. He lives in Portugal with his wife and 2 daughters. He grew up all over the world, and his career has afforded him to travel the globe. He's been in the machine learning space for 20 years, but spent his early days in statistical modeling - which was fun to setup, but boring to operate. For fun, he enjoys traveling and skiing, in particular off trail - and anywhere in Japan during the winter.
In 2016, Don caught the crypto bug, but not from the speculative component. He was fascinated with the providential integrity that is found in the blockchain. This culminated with 20 years of experience in deep tech, and led him down the path of AI agent payments.
This is the creation story of Nevermined.
