When you arrive at our web page, or social network profiles, the first thoughts can be, “Oh cool, blockchain…” “Looks nice…”, but in common all thoughts are, “Well, what are these guys really doing?”

Let’s explain how we work, what are we here for, and what are we doing.

We are a venture builder + incubator. What’s this? It’s a company born to build its own ideas, using its own resources, people and investments to implement them. We also add a plus, we are open to ideas from outside, helping external entrepreneurs to bring to life its own dreams. We have a venture idea analysis pipeline, that is on continuous analysis by our investment committee. Projects start on the pipeline as draft or lead, and finish at ready for Proof of concept (POC), being deeply analyzed from a business, regulatory and technological perspective. We mainly focus our efforts on B2B or B2B2C business ideas, where Distributed Ledger Technology can make the difference. When an idea reaches the POC status, our Core team starts the product development phase. The Core team has two main priorities : #buidl core components / building blocks that enable the development of the ventures and on other hand, develop, the prioritized POC’s based on these building blocks. After the development and validation of the POC of venture idea, if the hypothesis are validated, a new company is build with its own dedicated team and entrepreneurs. That’s all :)!

Which are the things that we believe that makes us different?

  • We are backed by relevant persons and technological companies.
  • Our investment committee has the perfect fit of technological, financial, networking, blockchain, business analysis and regulatory skills.
  • We have built an amazing core Team to bring life our ideas.
  • All our ideas start with a market related industrial partner behind
  • We focus on lean approach = learning by doing + product discovery / customer tests
  • And we have power, battery and hopes at 100% :)!

Which are our decision drivers?

  • We want to build sustainable businesses where Blockchain makes the difference
  • …Partnering with Key players of the given associated market
  • Our aim is to build relevant blockchain based regulated components with financial flavour
  • …Using them to build multisector and glocal ( global + local) ideas/startups
  • … and of course generating value and ROI via dividends, exit, etc

For the time being, we have decided to focus all our capacity, on our first 2 big ideas.

We are on our way. If you want, you can travel with us!
