MIAMI BEACH, Fla., April 3, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Currently in beta, the reservation app InList (http://www.inlist.com/) is putting together a strong foundation for its public launch later this year. Most recently, the team signed an advisory agreement with equity investor David Drake, all but guaranteeing a strong start out of the gate. InList is available for free on the app store: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/inlist/id694967200?ls=1&mt=8.

The InList team is excited about the wealth of knowledge and critical experience that Drake brings to the team. Not only is he a household name in the world of international investment, politics and philanthropy, but he is also on the boards of several nightlife and invite-only community mobile apps and companies. The team believes that with Drake as a key advisor, not to mention the not-insignificant talent already on the team, InList has stacked the deck in its favor. "I've known David for 8 years and it's a privilege for us to gain such a valuable resource to engage and grow with," says Gideon Kimbrell, co-founder of InList and software consultant for Fortune 100 companies.

Drake's list of accolades are numerous; his addition to the team, even in an advisory capacity, is a major coup for InList. As creator of The Soho Loft, an event-driven global financial media company, Drake understands how to organize people around a common cause. He's also at the forefront of social media engagement, continually pushing the boundaries of modern communication technologies. Mr. Drake was also a U.S Commerce Department delegate to the EU Commission in Brussels and Rome, and was invited to the White House for the Champions of Change ceremony.

All of Drake's talents will be brought to bear in the early stages of InList's launch. A company spokesperson had this to say about the business planning and development work underway in Miami: "Anyone can build an app. What we are building is trust and quality relationships both with industry insiders and our network of VIPs. It's all about building an unparalleled experience for our members. People will trust InList to send them to the best events. They won't bother even looking elsewhere."

At last count, InList had over 80,000 users and growing. The app allows users to quickly create and save profiles, and then browse for exclusive nightlife, charity and entertainment events. Users can book reservations to any event with just a couple of taps, receiving rapid confirmation.

Unlike competitor apps, InList's events are anything but public knowledge. Instead, the company employs a team of experts behind the scenes to curate an assortment of only the most exclusive concerts, club parties and charity gatherings. After users make reservations, an InList concierge confirms everything with the venue; the dedicated, insider service guarantees the best connections to the hottest events.

Soon, InList will be expanding to notable international locales, including London, Paris, St-Tropez, Ibiza and Dubai. An Android version of the app is currently in development, and feedback from beta testers will help refine the app in the run-up to the public launch. With David Drake providing guidance at critical junctures, the future most assuredly looks rosy for InList.
