Despite the challenges, La Rose's dedication to EOS remained unwavering.

Establishment of EOS Network Foundation

Recognizing the need for cohesive leadership within the EOS ecosystem, La Rose founded the EOS Network Foundation in May 2021. The foundation aims to unify stakeholders and realize the true potential of EOS. La Rose's holistic approach, influenced by his experiences in Japan and Asia, emphasizes mutual respect and community empowerment.
