A platform for choosing where to operate

The business combines access to jurisdictions with digital infrastructure for company administration. At the announcement, its network included zones in Zanzibar and Honduras, with a model intended to connect locations through shared rules and governance.

Building the zone network

The capital will help establish additional zones and attract residents, businesses and investors. The company is developing institutional infrastructure, rather than selling a conventional city-planning or construction tool.

  • Establish additional economic zones
  • Attract businesses, residents and investors
