从足球运动员到加密货币创始人：Laban和Kain Roomes的XRP Healthcare初创公司公开

对于企业家Laban Room和他的足球运动员转变为Crypto的创始人Kain来说，这是一条漫长的道路，但他们的XRP Healthcare Startup正在公开公开上加拿大证券交易所。

Entrepreneurs Laban and Kain Roomes have co-founded XRP Healthcare, a company that aims to modernize healthcare in Africa by combining cryptocurrency infrastructure, artificial intelligence, and real-world services, in a move that will see the startup go public on the Canadian stock exchange.

Laban和Kain Roomes的企业家共同创立了XRP Healthcare，该公司旨在通过将加密货币基础设施，人工智能和现实世界服务相结合，以使非洲的医疗保健现代化，以使这家创业公司在加拿大股票交易所上公开。

The company, which is incorporated in Dubai, operates a digital healthcare platform as well as a chain of pharmacies in Uganda using the XRP Ledger to track pharmaceutical supplies and patient outcomes.

该公司在迪拜合并，使用XRP Ledger经营数字医疗平台以及乌干达的一系列药房，以跟踪药品用品和患者结果。

“In the West, we take reliable pharmacies and access to medication for granted,” says Laban. “In parts of Uganda, that just isn’t the case. This is about changing that and starting on the ground, not in the metaverse.”

拉班说：“在西方，我们将可靠的药房和药物访问是理所当然的。” “在乌干达的部分地区，事实并非如此。这是关于改变它，从地面上开始，而不是在Metaverse中。”

“The country’s private healthcare market is highly fragmented. Our strategy involves buying and modernizing pharmacies, drastically reducing medication prices to enhance accessibility,” adds Kain.

Kain补充说：“该国的私人医疗保健市场高度分散。我们的战略涉及购买和现代化药房，大大降低药物价格以提高可及性。”

The acquisitions, now seven and counting, are part of a longer-term dream to consolidate the private healthcare market in Uganda, bringing it all together under one interoperable system. But they’re pacing themselves.

这些收购现已七个且计数，是巩固乌干达私人医疗保健市场的长期梦想的一部分，将它们全部汇总在一个可互操作的系统下。但是他们正在自动起步。

“There’s a temptation in crypto to scale fast and break things,” says Laban. “We’re scaling slowly and building trust instead.”

拉班说：“加密有一个诱惑，可以快速扩展并破坏事物。” “我们正在缓慢缩放，改为建立信任。”

On May 14, XRP signed a letter of intent with AAJ Capital 3 Corp for a reverse takeover to list on Canada’s TSX Venture Exchange. The founders frame going public as strategic, not speculative.

5月14日，XRP与AAJ Capital 3 Corp签署了一封意向书，进行了反向收购，以在加拿大的TSX Venture Exchange上列出。创始人将公开视为战略性，而不是投机性。

“We want transparency, regulation, and the capital to grow responsibly,” says Kain. “But this isn’t about a windfall. It’s about making sure the model works in Uganda, and eventually across Africa.”

凯恩说：“我们希望透明度，法规和资本能够负责任地增长。” “但这与意外收获无关。这是要确保该模型在乌干达乃至整个非洲的工作。”

The deal values the company at $16 million Canadian dollars ($11.5 million), so it’s hardly a Coinbase-listing style event. But it’s a big step along the road for the father-son team’s small XRP Ledger-based startup.

该交易重视该公司的1600万加元（1,150万加元），因此这几乎不是一场共同上市风格的活动。但这是父子团队的小型XRP Ledger创业公司迈出的一大步。

Football and modelling to XRP

XRP的足球和建模

It’s been a curious journey into crypto for Londoner Kain, who previously had a relatively successful career in football and modelling. He rose through youth teams at QPR, Tottenham, and Arsenal before playing professionally in Malta.

对于伦敦人Kain来说，这是一个奇怪的旅程，他以前在足球和建模方面拥有相对成功的职业。在马耳他专业比赛之前，他在QPR，热刺和阿森纳的青年团队中站起来。

He modeled for Nike, Adidas, and Puma and signed to top London agency PRM, while also working for Sports Direct. But over time, the heat went out of his career, and with it, his finances, and he wound up in debt. That’s when he found Bitcoin. He wanted to believe in something new, something bold.

他为耐克，阿迪达斯和彪马（Puma）建模，并在伦敦顶级机构PRM上签约，同时也在体育直接工作中工作。但是随着时间的流逝，暖气脱离了他的职业生涯，随着他的财务状况，他的财务状况以及他的债务。那是他找到比特币的时候。他想相信一些新事物。

In 2018, he sold a prized Rolex watch for 7,000 British pounds worth of Bitcoin, an investment that grew to be worth 100,000 pounds. He reinvested the proceeds in ICOs, which pumped his bank balance to over a million and landed him in the tabloids.

2018年，他以价值7,000英镑的价值比特币出售了一只珍贵的劳力士手表，这项投资的价值增长了100,000磅。他将收益重新投资于ICO，这使他的银行余额超过一百万，并将他降落在小报中。

After Kain’s first crypto investment paid off, both he and his father Laban immersed themselves in the space, following projects like Zilliqa and Ripple, attending meetups, and absorbing every detail.

在凯恩（Kain）的第一个加密货币投资获得了回报之后，他和他的父亲拉甘（Laban）都沉浸在Zilliqa和Ripple等项目之后，参加聚会，并吸收每个细节。

Laban, 55, is a UK-born entrepreneur with a knack for reinvention, having spent years building businesses from scratch. Laban’s first significant enterprise was shipping Lada Riva cars to Jamaica, and then in 1995, he established the luxury gifts and gold plating company Goldgenie, where he developed a unique digital gold-plating device despite having no formal engineering training.

现年55岁的拉班（Laban）是一位出生于英国的企业家，有重新发明的诀窍，花了多年的时间从​​头开始建立业务。拉班的第一个重要企业是将拉达·里瓦（Lada Riva）汽车运送到牙买加，然后在1995年，他建立了豪华礼物和黄金镀金公司Goldgenie，尽管没有正式的工程培训，但他开发了一种独特的数字金牌设备。

He appeared on BBC’s Dragons’ Den (later remade as Shark Tank in the US) where he secured the first televised investment from the celebrated investor James Caan, turning Goldgenie into a luxury brand in the late 2000s. After three years, Laban successfully bought Caan out, moving the company toward global celebrity clientele, including events like Elton John’s White Tie and Tiara Ball and Hollywood’s Emmy Awards, significantly elevating his business profile.

他出现在英国广播公司（BBC）的《龙巢穴》（后来在美国重建为鲨鱼坦克），在那里他从著名的投资者詹姆斯·凯恩（James Caan）获得了第一批电视投资，在2000年代后期将戈德吉（Goldgenie）变成了奢侈品牌。三年后，Laban成功购买了Caan，将公司转移到了全球名人客户群，包括Elton John的White Tie和Tiara Ball和Hollywood的Emmy Awards等活动，大大提高了他的业务知名度。

Teaming up with Laban to launch XRP Healthcare

与Laban合作推出XRP Healthcare

The genesis of XRP Healthcare was prompted by Kain’s desire to build something worthwhile using crypto. Supported by his father, Kain explored ways to launch his own project.

XRP Healthcare的起源是凯恩（Kain）希望使用加密货币（Crypto）建立值得的东西的愿望引起的。 Kain在父亲的支持下探索了启动自己的项目的方法。

“Initially, the idea of running a crypto project seemed daunting. We’d seen how other founders were treated, the criticism, the trolls, the pressure from the community in such a volatile environment, but after detailed discussions with my father, it felt like the right path. Healthcare became our chosen field, it’s large, critical, and a sector where you can genuinely impact lives.”

“最初，运行加密项目的想法似乎令人生畏。我们已经看到了其他创始人如何受到对待，批评，巨魔，社区的压力，在如此动荡的环境中与我父亲进行了详细的讨论后，它感觉就像是正确的道路。医疗保健成为我们选择的领域，是我们选择的领域，这是大型，重要的，重要的，以及您的真正影响生活。

The project saw the creation of a digital platform powered by the XRP Ledger to facilitate cross-border payments, reduce administrative overhead and track medical inventory.

该项目看到了由XRP Ledger提供支持的数字平台，以促进跨境支付，减少管理开销并跟踪医疗库存。

XRP Healthcare has two distinct yet interconnected business operations: a crypto-enabled digital healthcare platform and a physical mergers and acquisitions (M&A) strategy aimed at consolidating pharmacies in Africa, beginning in Uganda.

XRP Healthcare有两个不同但相互联系的业务运营：一个支持加密货币的数字医疗平台和实物合并和收购（M＆A）策略，旨在合并非洲的药房，始于乌干达。
