Founder & CEO

Since 2018, I have managed a platform offering local experiences and events for international travelers. In 2022, I helped establish ‘CryptoBase,’ a co-working space for Web3 businesses in Tokyo, and spoke at numerous conferences. Drawing on these experiences, I founded PlanetDAO to innovate in the digital domain.

Monika Sadkiewicz

Monika Sadkiewicz

Community manager

I was born in Poland and I’ve been living in Japan for 15 years, navigating the challenges of a third-culture identity.
For the past decade, I’ve built communities of students and parents through education, using English to connect people. My experience includes working as a Customer Service Representative for a cultural travel agency, where I met PlanetDAO’s founder, Tamaki. In 2023, driven by a desire to give back to Japan and extend my impact, I focused on sustainability, architecture, human relations, and sociocultural anthropology. With PlanetDAO, I aim to solve global issues and bridge cultures, people, and nations.
