Our technology is p2p network platforms and protocol first – protocol suite, software that implements those protocols and provides client software and infrastructure for p2p networks. Its based on Ethereum and we call it Autonity – the protocol, the Geth-based client.

We use our technology to build p2p networks and dFMI. P2p networks are private, member-owned and governed networks that enable peer-to-peer transfer of financial value and automation of contractual and fiduciary operations without reliance on trusted third-parties.

Such decentralised networks can interact with one another, creating a wider ecosystem of value and leveraging the network effect, and they can form part of a dFMI. dFMI is a new concept, one that builds on the security and resilience guarantees of distributed ledger and systems engineering to provide a platform for tokenising value and transferring its ownership between participants on that or, by cross-platform exchange, on other platforms.

We believe that our technology will drive adoption of a next-generation dFMI where intermediaries are removed, incentive structures encourage self-regulation, and risks are mitigated and reduced to the maximum. dFMI doesn’t just provide a cryptographically secure environment for market participants to transact, it provides a peer-to-peer model that removes financial intermediaries and engenders a wider ecosystem for value transfer across platforms and pre- post-trade processes.

Chic Retreats is a luxury travel marketplace using the latest in digital technology and marketing to connect a handpicked collection of independent boutique hotels, guesthouses, B&Bs and villas with affluent travellers around the world. True to any market place we take a holistic view of both the supply-side and the demand-side.

On the supply-side, these smaller properties (the long tail of travel) are typically owner-managed, under resourced and lack both technology and experience in running an online business. Chic Retreats provides them with all the technology they require to compete online, coupled with a strong brand, excellent PR support, access to high value customers and integration into other online travel traffic sources.

On the demand-side we work to ensure that the visitors to Chic Retreats trust the brand by employing highest acceptance criteria that make “Chic Retreats” synonymous with a vetted and guaranteed enjoyable stay. We strive to ensure the best user experience..
