Episode 36: Chris Draper on Accelerating Human Action with ODR

In this episode of the ICODR podcast Ian interviews Dr. Chris Draper, Managing Director of Trokt, on the evolution of technology, AI, and ODR.

Chris Draper is based in Des Moines, Iowa. Chris received his Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering from the University of California at Berkeley and his Doctor of Philosophy from the University of Glasgow. He is also a Venture Partner with VU Venture Partners in San Francisco, California. 
  
Chris’ ‘mission’ lies in reducing the operational risk of how humans interface with technology systems. To this end, he focuses on the development and delivery of technologies that help equitably resolve and avoid disputes ranging from labor relations to construction arbitration, financial compliance and to special needs education.

Trokt is a platform designed to optimise the use of digital technologies - to ‘reduce the clutter’ - in managing workflow, negotiations, and the avoidance of digital fraud.
