Phil Barry

Phil (MBA, Oxford) spent a decade on the creative side of the music business as a recording artist and record label founder, before switching gears to focus on technology-driven solutions to the challenges faced by creators in the digital world. He consulted on the world-first release of Radiohead singer Thom Yorke’s album Tomorrow’s Modern Boxes via BitTorrent before leading Ujo, the first blockchain music platform, a collaboration with the two-time Grammy-winning singer-songwriter Imogen Heap. Phil subsequently founded Blokur in the middle of 2016.
