💻 One person’s trash is another’s treasure

They’re here to reduce electronic waste. And it’s good for companies, and good for the planet.

This isn’t for secondhand clothes. They’re focused on digital devices like phones, laptops, and appliances that range from brand new and sealed to items that are in good condition without a box.

For companies. They can support their own CSR goals by creating ESG funds for donation or financing.

• By reusing old IT equipment,  this also helps companies reach their ESG goals.

🚀 What’s next?

They’ll use the new funding to expand operations and scale.
