Founded by Jeff Ifrah, Jim Trusty, and Ross Branson, the firm intends to shape federal policy and regulatory frameworks for emerging technologies, leveraging their connections within the Trump administration. The industry demand for D.C.-based advocates has grown since Trump's election, as sectors like AI and crypto seek representation in navigating regulatory landscapes. NexusOne's advisory board features notable figures like former U.S. Secretary of Education Bill Bennett and former Oklahoma Governor Mary Fallin, emphasizing its strategic positioning. The firm aims to provide a bridge between regulation and innovation, ensuring that tech companies influence policy rather than simply react to it, aligning with President Trump's vision of making the U.S. a leader in the digital asset space.
