  • Casey Neistat – YouTuber

OnePlus co-fonder raising $7 million for its next project, here's a list of investors

The firm is going to set up an office in London and is currently hiring personnel with 10 already on board. Unfortunately, aside from that, there’s no information on what kind of project this is going to be. Some speculate that it’s all about music hardware but with no official information whatsoever it’s hard to verify those claims.
