Biography
Hello World 👋 I’m Dejan Roljič, entrepreneur and brand builder.
I'm the biggest optimist about the power of technology to transform the world for the better. I’ve spent the last 15+ years creating companies and communities that bridge the gap between innovation and impact, especially in the fields of fintech, blockchain, and startup acceleration.
My journey into entrepreneurship started when I was 16, and I haven’t stopped since. After studying mechanical engineering in Ljubljana, I deepened my understanding of global business with studies in Shanghai, Munich, and the U.S.—each stop shaping how I see markets, culture, and the power of ecosystems.

I founded NAKA to build financial tools for the future, tools that give people more freedom, ownership, and inclusion, no matter where they are.
We’re creating new infrastructure for everyday financial interactions, from payments to decentralized banking solutions.
What Drives Me
I believe in technology that empowers. Whether it’s giving underbanked communities access to digital finance, helping a new founder find their footing, or building platforms that reward creators directly—I’m here for all of it. My work is guided by one simple idea: create with purpose.
Beyond business, I’ve always believed in giving back. That’s why I started "Kruh za prjatla" (Bread for a Friend) back in 2013—an initiative to provide free bread to those who need it most, run entirely by volunteers.
Let's Connect
If you’re working on something bold, human-centered, and a little bit out there, I’d love to hear about it.
