Network
Foundation
(ENF)
recently

infrastructure
upgrades.

and

Yves

continued

and
development
of

Yves
La
Rose’s
Vision
for
EOS

Yves
La
Rose,
a
well-known
figure
in
the
EOS
ecosystem,
has
been
instrumental
in
driving
the
network’s
progress.
His
journey
began
with
an
early
interest
in
technology,
building
his
first
computer
and
writing
his
first
program
at
the
age
of
seven.
After
studying
psychology
at
the
University
of
Ottawa,
La
Rose
moved
to
Japan,
where
he
immersed
himself
in
the
local
culture
and
began
his
professional
career
in
business
and
education.

La
Rose’s
fascination
with
technology
and
decentralized
networks
was
reignited
in
2010
when
he
started
mining
Bitcoin
on
his
laptop.
This
interest
led
him
to
explore
various
blockchain
platforms,
eventually
focusing
on
EOSIO,
an
open-source
blockchain
platform
that
powers
the
EOS
Mainnet.

Formation
of
EOS
Nation
and
ENF

In
2018,
La
Rose
co-founded
EOS
Nation,
leading
it
to
become
the
top-rated
block
producer
on
the
EOS
Mainnet.
Under
his
leadership,
EOS
Nation
navigated
numerous
challenges,
including
operational
uncertainties,
governance
models,
and
public
goods
funding.
However,
the
EOSIO
network
faced
issues
such
as
distant
leadership,
misallocation
of
capital,
and
misalignment
of
incentives.

In
May
2021,
La
Rose
resigned
as
CEO
of
EOS
Nation
to
establish
the
EOS
Network
Foundation.
The
ENF
aims
to
unify
EOS
stakeholders
and
realize
the
network’s
true
potential.
Since
its
inception,
the
foundation
has
focused
on
empowering
the
EOS
community
and
addressing
the
network’s
infrastructure
needs.

Infrastructure
Upgrades
and
Community
Empowerment

During
the
July
2024
BP
meeting,
La
Rose
emphasized
the
importance
of
infrastructure
upgrades
to
enhance
the
network’s
performance
and
reliability.
The
ENF
is
committed
to
providing
the
necessary
resources
and
support
to
the
EOS
community,
ensuring
that
the
network
remains
competitive
and
innovative.

La
Rose’s
leadership
is
characterized
by
a
holistic
approach,
drawing
from
Eastern
thought
and
traditions.
His
time
in
Japan
has
influenced
his
perspective
on
unifying
the
global
EOS
community
through
mutual
respect
and
collaboration.
The
ENF
continues
to
cultivate
a
team
dedicated
to
serving
the
needs
of
the
EOS
community
and
fostering
a
spirit
of
cooperation
and
empowerment.
