1. THE BEGINNING

This innovation initially came to life when…

We realised that there was a huge need for a platform which opened up conversation to all segments of the built environment. Working in the development industry there were separate vertical conversations and discussions but none of which included everyone, especially developers who at the top of the food chain make the decisions that effect our cities and how we live within them. 

2. WHAT & HOW
