Dan Hughes is the Founder of Radix DLT, which he has been building for over 11 years. He started his career as a games developer on entertainment titles for PC's and consoles. Games are commonly pushing the boundaries of the hardware that they are running on, and as such developers of titles need to be able to think astutely and "out of the box". This has proved to be his most valuable skill and allowed him to consistently deliver a number of "firsts" within a large number of fields, from mobile services, telecoms, financial systems to distributed ledger technologies. He was one of the first to develop applications for NFC technology and contactless payment services such as mobile wallets. Dan has worked closely with a number of mobile OEM's and operators such as Nokia, Sony Ericsson, T-Mobile, Samsung and others via my successful start-up, KDB Technology where he held positions of CEO/CTO and Chief Architect. After exiting KDB, he discovered Bitcoin and the digital currency movement. Bitcoin is great first step, but is not without flaws. After a period of investigation he decided to attempt to develop a more complete solution, thus starting Radix.
