Kenrick Drijkoningen is one of the earliest VCs to focus exclusively on blockchain and crypto through LuneX Ventures before bringing that expertise to Play Ventures' dedicated blockchain and metaverse gaming fund, making him a rare crypto-native partner inside a top-tier gaming VC platform. Before investing full-time, he ran growth and marketing at high-velocity Southeast Asia startups like Zalora/Lazada, Nonstop Games, and Travelmob, giving him hands-on experience in both gaming and consumer internet in emerging markets that he brings to Play Ventures' global gaming strategy.
