Honour Network is delighted to announce Willan Capital Pte. Ltd., a registered venture capital fund management company with Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS), becomes one of the early pilot customers of Honour Network FundTech platform.

Willan Capital Pte. Ltd. understands the disruption blockchain technology & token economy will have on the fund management industry. The potential is not limited to tokenisation of a fund or real world assets. The ability to raise capital from the crypto market in relatively shorter time and lower cost and the ability to offer traditional assets to the blockchain community are some of the compelling reasons.

With their expertise in venture capital fund management and its parent company in international real estate investment, Willan Capital Pte. Ltd. is leading the way to leverage blockchain technology and the token economy.

Willan Capital Pte. Ltd., will use Honour Network FundTech platform to issue their own asset-backed tokens when Honour Network FundTech platform is launched on the Ethereum main network.

James Kho, CEO of Willan Capital Pte. Ltd. says “Honour Network FundTech platform will not just disrupt the asset & fund management industry. Many startups just looked at tokenizing real world assets but the team has taken it further to empower collective wisdom investing amongst the blockchain community and ensure transparent management of assets leveraging on blockchain technology. And there are much more they are doing. We are proud to be associated with them and advice them on their journey.”

Alan Lee, CEO of Honour Network says “We are extremely delighted that Willan Capital has chosen us as their customer and partner. It is a huge testimonial to our vision and our ability to execute. Honour Network FundTech platform does more than tokenisation of assets. We understand the needs of our customers and will continue to innovate to deliver the cutting edge business tools leveraging on our deep knowledge in finance, blockchain technology & tokenise economy.”

Prior to that, he is in asset management and also previously held several key positions in investment banking and corporate finance departments of international banks and major local brokerage houses focusing on capital markets.
