Own is the platform to buy and sell shares — business owners can sell equity in their businesses to raise capital and investors can buy and sell shares from businesses. You can see the Own Market prototype on their website. Like all good ideas, at its core the platform is really simple.

Own allows business owners to sell equity in their business in return for capital from investors. Own can offer this service free of charge to both business owners and investors because they keep their processes simple and utilize blockchain technology.

A Dual Blockchain – Own Markets blockchain is purpose-built to handle publicly available data, as well as confidential data – a unique challenge for the equity market.

Fully Scaleable – Own Markets blockchain is built to scale – for big businesses with millions of shareholders and global investors. Providing stability.

The Standard – Own is building a global digital share certificate that they intend to become the new global standard. Their blockchain is specifically built for digital share transactions.

“We’ve created the alternative. a fair, supranational exchange. it’s fast, scalable, decentralised, transparent and secure. in short, it’s the equity market as it should be.”
