Blockchain for Autism Advocacy, Jobs & Real-World Social Impact
Barry Mezey is a UN NGO Goodwill Ambassador and Founder of the Barry Mezey Foundation For Autism, Inc., a 501(c)(3) public charity dedicated to improving the lives of individuals with autism, special needs, and mental health challenges. Through blockchain technology and the KWAN Token (KWAN 2.0), he is pioneering utility-token models that fund job creation, affordable housing, content-creator opportunities, and essential services for the neurodivergent community.
A former high-profile sports and celebrity marketing agent who built and sold Superstar Management Group, Barry transitioned into full-time philanthropy and Web3 after drawing on his own lived experience as an autistic advocate. He is an early Bitcoin adopter, accredited United Nations Volunteer, and creator of social-impact content series that channel resources back into the Foundation’s mission. At UN Blockchain Week he brings a unique perspective on how decentralized technology can deliver measurable outcomes — jobs, dignity, and opportunity — for some of the world’s most underserved populations.
