And we welcome the rebranded “Draper Goren Holm” to the Draper Venture Network.” Draper is known throughout the world for his early investments in notable companies such as Tesla, Hotmail, Skype, and Coinbase. He is also known for his early support of Bitcoin. Founding partner, Alon Goren, discussed the platform’s ability to identify early-stage, high-quality entrepreneurs in an emerging market and bring them all together. “We’ve built a platform that enables us to find, identify and support the most amazing entrepreneurs in the blockchain space, at the earliest stage,” said Goren. “Having Tim Draper, one of the most successful and legendary early-stage investors on our team, further amplifies our efforts and growth.” The announcement follows Goren Holm’s acceptance into the Draper Venture Network (DVN) earlier this year. DVN is a one-of-kind alliance of self-governed, independent venture funds that cooperate on investor diligence, market intelligence, corporate relationships, and co-investments. However, the relationship between Goren, Holm, and Draper has evolved since then into Draper investing and becoming a board member of the firm. After the announcement, GHV co-founder Josef Holm spoke about the opportunities and insight that Draper brings to a team. “Tim is one of the most respected voices in not only cryptocurrency but throughout the investment world. We’re honored that he decided to join our firm and bring the world-class knowledge he has to offer.” [Share](https://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=https://articles.marketsmedia.com/goren-holm-ventures-reaps-draper-investment) [Tweet](https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?text=US+ETFs+Have+Record+Net+Inflows&url=https://articles.marketsmedia.com/goren-holm-ventures-reaps-draper-investment) [Share](https://www.linkedin.com/cws/share?url=https://articles.marketsmedia.com/goren-holm-ventures-reaps-draper-investment) ![email](https://articles.marketsmedia.com/hubfs/Markets%20Media/email.svg) ### NEWSLETTER SIGN UP And receive exclusive articles on securities markets ### Related articles 1.
