In this Azizi Podcast, Samir Azizi chats with Husnain — a core member of Toronto DAO and founder of a stealth startup.
We caught up at Solana Startup Village in Toronto, hosted by Superteam, to talk about building in Web3, leadership, and what makes Toronto DAO events stand out in Canada’s crypto scene.
In this conversation, Husnain shares:
 • His experience building a stealth startup focused on Web3 infrastructure.
 • The challenges of managing and motivating teams as a founder.
 • Why he prefers a leadership style based on intrinsic motivation over authoritarian management.
 • His role in Toronto DAO’s decentralized AI & data event and how interactive presentations made a bigger impact.
 • What makes Toronto DAO unique — from consistency in events and spaces to building a real community in the GTA.
If you’re curious about startup leadership, Web3 community building, and Toronto’s growing crypto ecosystem, this interview is for you.
