Gasper Stih is an experienced senior executive and Marketing Director at Zonda with a strong marketing and team management background. He took an unusual path to marketing after growing up in Hawaii, where he realized that being a soccer player or professional kiteboarder wouldn’t fulfil him once he grew old.

After seven years of helping various companies enhance their marketing with his toolbox of specialities, Gasper is now on a mission to build brands that make an impact. He recently completed a tenure as CMO at Nitro League where he helped raise over $9 million from investors and then built a marketing department from scratch for a wildly-popular metaverse-based mobile play-to-earn (P2E) racing game. His latest CMO gig was leading a marketing team at Ternoa, a next-gen blockchain NFT framework empowering everyone to build web3.
Gasper is a gamer, sportsman, crypto investor and father who loves data-driven and data-backed decisions; results and outputs are his forte. He’s always up for a chat, as he loves discussing new ideas and technology and sharing stories.
