About Me

Hi There

Principal, SM Global Finance

Dan Adrian Pop founded SM Global Finance, a Switzerland-based Venture Capital Firm with an aim to impact the industries of tomorrow. The conglomerate is envisioned as a sum of Dan’s unmatched experience gained from his own ventures. These include United Finance, United Wealth Finance, United Technologies Holding, United Technologies Global Growth Fund, 88 Hotels Group and UNICOR Trading.
A serial entrepreneur and a great visionary in his own right, Dan focuses on bringing continuous innovation in every industry he’s involved in. He believes in the power of quick decision-making in a dynamic landscape. Not only does he advise global companies on large-scale business transformations, he also steers corporate strategies fueled by analytical insights; making an indelible impression.

Having kick-started his career with the global giant Coca Cola, Dan always aspired to work independently. Identifying the seismic change in the recruitment industry, he decided to capitalise on the opportunity. That is when he shifted base to Singapore and launched United Consult. By 2010, United Consult was serving distinguished companies in the US, Canada and Australia. In 2016, Dan sold the company to Adecco, and set off to discover new horizons in Europe.
Armed with a rare foresight of the business world, he started United Technologies Holding Ltd. in 2016. The Virm, which developed software solutions, also became instrumental in identifying new business arenas and approaches to software implementation. United Technologies went on and developed the UTHSuite software which he sold to several A listed companies.
Pushing his boundaries further, Dan wanted to leverage the potential of the Vinancial industry. Using the gains from his software development business he went on and funded United Finance Ltd., and helped fulVill bank guarantees for clients in China by using his own money. He later opened United Wealth Finance, a trading bank based in New Zealand which helped grow further the Vinancial business and used it to go into the trading business; he later on started Unicor Trading in Korea and started doing commodities trading.
Utilizing a perspective honed by experience, Dan collated the companies under one umbrella, SM Global Finance in 2019. Today, with a net worth of 3.8 billion dollars, Dan leads the operational and performance agenda at SM Global Finance.
Dan completed his degree in medicine from University of Georgia and later, switched his career to pursue HR Management at the Duke University.
