A network that helps entrepreneurs and innovators – at an ideas stage – to acquire the resources (products development, sales, equipment, office space and so on) that they need to get to a financeable or revenue generating stage, but without payment up front. It also helps individuals and businesses with spare time, assets, production or service capacity, to monetise these for above market prices.
Entrepreneurs can acquire resources on a fixed rates, but paid out of a share of generated future revenues. Using our online deal structuring platform, working with resource and finance providers, they collaboratively create and de-risked a detailed plan to run the business and form a basis for the revenue distribution agreement. We are currently helping ventures in the web, manufactured product, commercial property and greentech sectors.
In addition to ventures and resource providers, we are looking for advisors, finance providers, organisations and individuals interested in providing the solution to their clients and/or hosting a co-branded microsite.
