Road to Success

HONG KONG — Yifan He, founder of blockchain company Red Date, is confident he can win over global clients despite being based in China — and not offering any cryptocurrency services.

Red Date offers ready-made infrastructure for companies to deploy blockchain applications such as payment services, social media platforms or other decentralized programs. This saves on the cost of new servers, developers, electricity and hardware, which can add up to hundreds of thousands of dollars, He said.
