Delray Wannemacher, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, brings to EDGE over 25 years of highly valued experience, including building successful exits for investors and raising hundreds of millions of dollars for public and private companies.

Delray has always thrived while operating at the leading edge of disruptive technologies and engineering trends. His entrepreneurial DNA and spirit of innovation led him to his current position, following EDGE’s acquisition of Blockchain Holdings Capital Ventures shortly after he founded it in 2018. The focus of Blockchain Holdings was building out a network of advanced, decentralized data centers supporting the rapid growth driven by blockchain and other advanced computing technologies.

His deep fascination with cloud computing, data centers, and digital communications began during his studies in the Air Force, when he focused on innovative communications. Following this, Delray has acquired substantive experience working within shifting regulatory environments, including leading integration at MCI, where he successfully upgraded 174 datacenters to become Y2K-compliant.

Over the years, he has been distinguished for his work with emerging growth companies from a wide array of sectors, including the fields of blockchain, fintech, energy, real estate, solar projects, resources, biotech, media, internet, software, finance, crowdfunding portals, communications, international investments, and trade.

Delray has an extensive background in technology and applied science and knowledge in WAN (Cloud) and LAN infrastructure, as well as a deep familiarity with designing, implementing and maintaining network operation centers, data centers, disaster recovery solutions, storage solutions, security solutions, cloud solutions, and other related matters.

In addition to championing the vision for the company since 2018, Delray has actively served on impactful boards, including The World Trade Center of Atlanta (2016-2019) and ChineseInvestors.com, Inc. (2017-2020). He also served in an executive position as Vice President of Corporate Development with The World Trade Center of Atlanta (2016-2019). All these experiences throughout his professional career have given him a global vision on how to maximize growth while minimizing risk, which he leverages as he charts the path for EDGE’s national and global operations and growth.
