New Adviser & Partnership Announcement

APIS continues to make significant effort to bring advisers to our board of advisers in order to expand our platform for widespread adoption as well as getting various financial and technical advice from our forerunners. As a part of that effort, we are proud to announce that we have reached an agreement with LDJ capital Ltd. to have its Chairman David Drake as our Board Adviser.

Mr. Drake heads the New York-based family office LDJ Capital, and has acted as GP & LP investors with his partners in fund-of-funds, realty funds, venture capital funds & hedge funds. Mr. Drake’s investments currently have 50+ global directors that maintain relations with institutions & family offices with $1.5 trillion in assets.

More recently, Mr. Drake is also seen as a leader in cryptocurrency. Mr. Drake saw the value of digital assets when everyone was avoiding it. It all started in 2011 when Mr. Drake collaborated on the JOBS Act to create new laws underlying all fundraising in the U.S. for all ICOs. He runs a $200M LDJ Cayman Fund focused on cryptocurrency, mining and ICO acquisitions. LDJ Capital Credit also offers middle market bridge financing to seed upcoming ICO’s. Previously he held a majority stake as a Managing Partner with Robert Hambrecht in an Alternative Energy Fund NewCommons Capital 2009–2010.

Mr. Drake has been involved in TMT (technology, media, telecoms), realty, hospitality, cleantech, energy and social impact investments for more than 20 years. He is an advocate of innovative investing in private equity, capital formation policies and developments globally, and the US JOBS Act which he lobbied for in the US Congress and the EU Commission. Because of his leading work in this space, he represented the US Commerce Department at the EU Commission in Brussels and Rome in 2012 and was invited to the White House Champions of Change ceremony in Washington, D.C. and as a speaker at the UK Parliament in 2013.

Born in Sweden and fluent in six languages, Mr. Drake has an MBA in Finance and an MA in International Law and Economics from George Washington University, where he was awarded the Wallenberg Scholarship for academic merit.

Mr.Drake will provide invaluable advice to the advent of the APIS Platform and support us in realizing our goal of expanding the realm of blockchain technology for mass adoption.

We will continue to seek cooperation with influential organizations and individuals as well as making full effort in developing the APIS platform, including its expended capabilities such as Address Masking, Meneral System, Smart Contract on Canvas.
