George Samman

Acted as an intermediary between the Akropolis team and multiple centralized venues and institutional counterparties to secure listings, market-making programs and custody arrangements. Negotiations resulted in concrete listing dates and bilateral agreements that expanded on-exchange liquidity pools for AKRO. Structured and advised on token allocation terms for exchange listings, including lockups and market-making incentives that reduced initial sell pressure. These contractual arrangements were filed with counterparties and affected how and when large token tranches entered secondary markets. Coordinated introductions to institutional liquidity providers and OTC desks, facilitating large buy/sell blocks and secondary market support that smoothed price discovery during high-volatility events. Practical interventions included arranging syndicated liquidity programs and timed buybacks tied to treasury management decisions. Participated in public AMAs and investor roadshows that communicated planned exchange and custody support, which influenced institutional sentiment and retail confidence ahead of listing milestones, producing observable impacts on orderbook depth and traded volumes.
