GAP 3 Partners (“G3”), a Dubai-based institutional virtual asset advisory firm, today announced that it has been granted an Operational License by the Dubai Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority (VARA). With this advisory license, G3 becomes the first regulated Virtual Asset Investment Advisor authorized to provide its full range of services to institutional clients across the Emirate.
This approval marks a significant milestone for both G3 and Dubai’s evolving virtual asset regulatory landscape, positioning the firm at the forefront of institutional adoption in the region.
Founded by industry veterans Robin Janaway (Outlier Ventures), Chris Donovan (NEAR Foundation), and Adib Tohme, G3 offers advisory services covering token strategy, investment, structuring, licensing, treasury management, and token-market execution.
G3 now stands ready to support family offices, corporations, and investment institutions seeking secure and compliant access to the digital asset space, including emerging opportunities in real-world asset (RWA) tokenisation and blockchain-based financial infrastructure.
“Dubai’s regulatory leadership together with accelerating institutional interest in digital assets create a unique environment for growth,” said the founding team in a joint statement. “We are building G3 to be the region’s premier Virtual Asset Investment Advisor—trusted by institutions to navigate complexity, unlock value, and lead in the next era of finance.”
With over a decade of combined digital asset experience, G3 is leveraging Dubai’s progressive regulatory framework to help clients future-proof their operations and investments. As real-world asset tokenisation and institutional digital asset strategies accelerate, G3 offers the structure, insight, and regulatory clarity needed to support high-trust adoption at scale.
