Interesting and entertaining chat with Alon Gorne, we talk about early-stage blockchain investing, Bitcoin's recent high and what's driving its growth, the adoption of decentralized finance, and digital securities among other things.
Draper Goren Holm was founded as Goren Holm Ventures in 2018, a limited partnership between founders Alon Goren and Josef Holm, then later joined by Tim Draper and rebranded to Draper Goren Holm in 2019. The firm is a venture studio focused on accelerating and incubating blockchain and crypto startups, while simultaneously producing leading blockchain and cryptocurrency events, Security Token Summit and Crypto Invest Summit (CIS).
In addition to producing the world's largest blockchain conference, Draper Goren Holm has been operating a blockchain venture studio that actively accelerates and incubates early-stage startups. The venture studio, which now has 18 portfolio companies, has seen tremendous internal growth, primarily in the decentralized finance (DeFi) and the security token and digital securities sector, and as a result, has positioned itself as one of the top venture funds in the industry.
