GetGround

getGround is developing the infrastructure for a global digital marketplace for assets enveloped in company shells. Trillions of dollars of assets are tied in inefficient illiquid markets - think property, ships, factory machinery, infrastructure. Enveloping assets in company shells unlocks liquidity by enabling the right legal basis for asset ownership, governance and exchange. However companies, one of humanity's greatest inventions, are stuck in the past. We are digitising and automating the company, through: - programmatic incorporation and administration; - e-wallet financial infrastructure; - automated accounting incorporating machine learning techniques and; - a secondary market platform built for scale. It's about time to democratise liquid asset ownership. Imagine walking on a street and thinking, "I own 5% of that store, and 10% of that flat, and 30% of the ride sharing fleet in this area"​. Imagine climbing the property ladder bit by bit, without taking on debt and interest. To start, we're tackling UK private residential investment property, with £1.3 trillion of stock, and £30-50 billion in transactions a year. The business was founded by brothers Misrab and Moubin. It has raised a large seed round, is post-revenue and serving customers. Misrab is a computer scientist from Stanford University and set up the data science team at Go-Jek, Indonesia's first unicorn startup now worth $10bn. Moubin has a background in finance and business having worked at Apax Partners where he bought and sold over $2bn worth of company and previously worked at McKinsey & Co.
