Invest in Business. Crowd-up is creating a decentralised funding platform that will digitize equity to implement a quick, secure and efficient marketplace for private business Crowd-up is creating a decentralised funding platform that will digitize equity to implement a quick, secure and efficient marketplace for private businesses to raise capital. We will achieve this by removing the market intermediaries that currently exist in traditional platforms, such as; brokers, underwriters and centralised financial institutions.

Crowd-up will operate in a manner that is similar to a venture capital fund. Investors will buy into the ‘fund’ by purchasing our digital currency - CDUs (Crowd-Up tokens). These tokens will allow investors to invest in companies raising funds on our platform, therefore operating with the buying power of a venture fund but maintaining the flexibility of angel investing.

Crowd-Up will go beyond being a matchmaker for startups and investors and level the playing field by opening early funding to a global investment/entrepreneur marketplace. This will break down the barriers that have only allowed “moneyed” investors or traditional VC’s to participate in early funding opportunities, and gives entrepreneurs looking to raise capital another avenue to raise funds other than traditional Venture Capital circuits.

Little Phil
Powered by blockchain technology, the little Phil platform is an entirely new way of giving that fixes trust issues with charities using a public ledger, smart contracts and unique digital identities (UDID) to provide givers with the Proof of Need and Proof of Impact required to re-establish trust in giving to charity. Little Phil uses blockchain technology and user experience (UX) designed around a positive psychology framework to allow people to have the oversight, control and emotional connection of a philanthropist, without giving large amounts. People are able to give on their terms through their smartphone and track their giving all the way to the moment it’s received. This will create an engaging experience that makes them genuinely feel the positive impact they have had on their cause. In addition to this, charities will have solutions to their fundraising and exploitation concerns at a much lower cost than they currently incur.

World Mobile Token
World Mobile is going the extra mile to open a new world. With nearly 4 billion people left offline, digital exclusion is a significant problem. Unlike traditional mobile networks, World Mobile is based on the sharing economy, selling affordable network nodes to local business owners, and so they have the power to connect themselves and others while sharing the rewards. The World Mobile Token (WMT) is a digital token that is issued with the purpose of allowing the participants to provide a service on the network and be rewarded accordingly for it. The primary role of WMT is to incentivise both token holders that want to support the operation of the network by way of delegating their WMT stake to a node operator (stakers) as well as node operators that operate their own node. WMT is the utility token at the heart of World Mobile Chain, a solution developed in partnership between Input Output Global and World Mobile to democratize access to digital, financial and social services in Africa, the first of its kind to go the extra mile and connect the unconnected. The sharing economy enabled by WMT provides the foundation for affordable network nodes, based on the Cardano blockchain infrastructure. These network nodes act as local relays for internet connectivity. Subscribers to these networks will be able to access Input Output’s digital identity solution, Atala PRISM, which will allow them to use services such as digital banking, healthcare and education.
