Besides the funding, Next Earth has appointed David Taylor, the token architect behind NXTT, as CEO of Limitless.
David Taylor says, “Now within the Limitless network there are over 700 venture capital firms and 1200 startups that are potential service providers within the Next Earth metaverse, which has been done through strategic partnerships that Limitless has been making.”
He adds “Limitless started building a $260M (approximately €246M) metaverse fund to breathe out new metaverse startups that will be onboarded to Next Earth, giving utility to the land and NXTT and creating the first generation of successful metaverse startups in the next five years.”
The position of Chairman has been filled by David Prais, who is a mentor of David Taylor and has been working with him for 7 years.
David Prais has built seven unicorn companies, including Dell and Gateway, and has been the former chairman of the Greater London Investment Fund.
