Gary Cohn, the former chief economic aide to President Donald Trump and president of Goldman Sachs Group Inc., will serve as an adviser to blockchain-technology startup Spring Labs.
Joining Spring Labs is his most high-profile move since resigning as National Economic Council director earlier this year after Trump imposed tariffs on aluminum and steel that Cohn opposed. He is credited with helping to shepherd the Trump administration’s tax overhaul package.
