We believe that collaboration is a way to revolutionize the concept of value, bringing people closer through experience sharing. It allows people to fulfill their needs, live new experiences and grow throught collaboration. Everybody has a talent or skill to share, here we are using these assets to create a collaborative economy which uses time as currency.
How does it work? You can offer an hour of Spanish lessons and for it you will receive a time credit and then you can exchange this credit for any activity available in the platform, like culinary lessons or someone to walk your dog.
Time is our market. There are 3 trillion idle hours per year that can be used to make profit and turn into business opportunities. Prospections show that more than $13 billion will move Sharing Economy in the next 3 years.
Since our launch 10 months ago, we have more than 40000 users in 78 countries. This lead us to extraordinary results:

2. 92 % of the people in this planet want to live or learn something new. The Y generation feels the
need to be connected and growing, doesn’t matter how. But more than knowledge and skills, they
want to experience new things. The problem is that these experiences have costs, and most of the
time, mellennials won’t have money.
Bliive is a solution to make people fulfill their needs and live new experiences and grow throught
collaboration. Everybody has a talent or skill to share, in Bliive we are using these assets to create
a collaborative economy which uses time as currency.

BUSINESSMODEL
Our business model works through 3 products:
Bliive for organizations is a private option for companies, schools or colleges to bring
collaboration to their environment through the time exchange. With a fee proportional to the
size of the company, a customized Bliive platform is created. Companies can discover the
interests and skills of theirs employees, bring them closer to NGO, integrate different sectors
and create a collaborative culture.
Bliive Exchange Points is directed to commercial establishments, like coffee shops, galleries
and bars. A monthly fee is charged and we recommend the place as a nice and safe location for
the users to get to know each other and share their time.
The third opportunity is Groups in Bliive, a possibility for universities, associations, clubs and
other organizations to give to their members an exclusive space in Bliive’s platform, enabling a
highly more improved connection of their communities and exhibit their brand through a badge
on the members profile.
7. DIRECT COMPETITION
crowdlearning
plataforms
We are the first social network of time exchanging in the world. Different than others time
banking platforms Bliive is giving a way to our users share experiences with theirs friends
and communities. So, comparing Bliive to others time exchanging platforms evidence that we
are the only ones that creates a social network based on collaborative experiences. For Bliive,
our social status is based on how many people we helped and how many new experiences
we lived and learned. From a technical point of view, our platform is more complete than
others, more specifically when we talk about features and user experience.

team, but surely the most important thing is to believe in what you're doing. Our partners totally

partner have contacts and capacitation to give us more opportunities
9. 170k

We intend to use this 170k to turn our platform into the biggest Collaborative
Economy platform, not only in Brazil, but also here in the UK. We are going to
achieve this through marketing campaigns, sales and focus on our first product,
Bliive Groups and focus on technology and leads generation.
10. EXIT STRATEGY
in search for
big user data
big social networkscomplementary
service
We believe that we are a good target for Online Businesses that would have interest
in acquiring big user data, such as search provider websites, big social networks that
look forward into a bigger scenario in their field of expertise, comprising collaboration
services or also big companies aiming to comprise in the sharing economy field.
When considering the added value in data bank and network information, several
kinds of businesses would be interested in, the next 5 years, acquire a collaborative
platform of services such as Bliive.
We imagine that an exit in 5 years from now would valuate in about USD 100mi,
based in exit strategies of networks like Couchsurfing and Airbnb current valuation.
