Getting into the specifics of what Deconet do, David explains how they do due diligence. (0:11:53)

About Deconet

‘As humans digitise an increasing portion of the world’s information, each economic sector is transfigured by and incorporated into the knowledge economy, the economy that exists at the intersection of human creativity and digital capacity. Yet, knowledge economy projects remain undifferentiated in structure and governance, and undercapitalised. Crowd-curated project cooperatives and asset marketplaces, along with the financial rails necessary to support them, offer the potential for much greater collaboration across the knowledge economy.

Our goal is to catalyse this collaboration. We envision a world of digital cooperatives that redefine the future of knowledge work, enabled by a freely proliferating diversity of project ownership, governance, and capitalisation structures.

To realise this potential, we propose a software platform that matches projects with knowledge workers and digital assets.’
