We bring an industry spesific Project Development CRM, Bid Management Tools and Project Management Software in one easy-to-useplatform which integrates easily with other most used software in the industry. Even thought the construction industry accounts for 13% of the world’s GDP, there's been a global problem of poor productivity within the industry as productivity growth has increased only 1% over the past 20 years. From the real estate developers and general contractors point of view, the biggest issue is the projects that turn unprofitable unexpectedly. One unprofitable project destroys the whole year profits and another one can bankrupt the entire company. Most of the decisions that affect the success of a project are made before construction begins, but still there are no smart tools available for that stage to help the construction companies avoid unprofitable projects. We solve this global problem by bringing the most critical steps to the success of a construction project on the same platform.

Antero Vartia
Angel

Antero Vartia is a former Finnish MP and the founder of Compensate, a non-profit built to empower individuals and businesses to combat climate change. The thought Antero wanted to bring forth was that every person should be allowed to take responsibility for their own emissions. Exactly like a person is responsible for cleaning up after themselveswhen they make a mess. That is why Compensate was founded, to make the carbon impact of goods and services visible to each of us in our everyday life. Although informing and offsetting is an essential part of Compensate, the foundation is really about making a change. The change Antero and Compensate want to create is a systemic one. To make compensating a natural part of everyone’s life and make it feel like it is what we always should have done. The change in the way of thinking is what is needed to save the planet from the most drastic effects of climate change.
