Lakeba ranks as HIGH-GROWTH

The Financial Times, Nikkei Asia and Statista officially rank Lakeba as a High-Growth Company, Asia-Pacific

Lakeba posted an absolute 2016 to 2019 growth rate of 527.2%. Ranking Lakeba amongst APAC’s top 10 high-growth fintechs and top 25 high-growth technology companies. Lakeba also ranks as the only high-growth venture catalyst firm.

Giuseppe Porcelli, CEO of Lakeba, says: “I always knew we had something exceptional in our business model – but grant it, I’m biased. So, to have the FT and Nikkei’s research confirm it by ranking our hypergrowth is a very special endorsement.”

Lakeba’s growth stems from building several businesses. Using centralised resources for conceiving, creating and commercialising its 15 (currently) digital ventures.

Lakeba’s AI determines which crippling frictions in business and society can be solved with technology. The technology and business teams at Lakeba engineer the start-ups that provide the fixes to these problems. These then evolve into scale-ups through Lakeba’s partnerships and commercial teams co-creating and collaborating with sector leaders, including EY, Microsoft, Mirvac, NewsCorp and Stockland, amongst others.

This unique model established 360Dgrees, AirCrypto, BRICKLET, Deals4Sport, ezidox, EziFin, EziLoan, EziTECH, ntick8, Paid By Coins, Prophetico, Quixxi, SHELFIE, Titlexchange and Verimoto as successful businesses in less than eight years. All engineered by Lakeba.

AirCrypto, Deals4Sport and Paid By Coins have been exited by Lakeba. With several additional businesses already in development.

“As the ventures are maturing, the net asset value of the portfolio is becoming very, very interesting;” commented a spokes person for Altor Alpha Fund.

About Lakeba

Lakeba builds businesses that are optimised for high returns from low investment, at low risk when compared with the start-up sector. It utilises proprietary artificial intelligence (AI), decades of business and technology experience, and scalable shared services, to support each phase of business building. So far it has ‘conceived, created and commercialised’ 15 ventures, of which three have already been spun-out.

The unique Lakeba AI ‘neural network’ ‘conceives’ opportunities by continually interrogating the internet to establish patterns which suggest a business ‘need’ that could be solved digitally. Its entrepreneurs then double check this analysis and determine the viability of the business idea and its commercial potential.

To ‘create’ a venture, Lakeba works with partners, industry, and the wider innovations ecosystem to create digital technologies that eliminate the frictions identified by the neural network. A team of technologists, designers, and entrepreneurs build out the value proposition and establish the business. Lakeba invests its time, capabilities, capital and resources to craft ideas into reality.

‘Commercialise’ is the final stage of the Lakeba process. Once the digital proof of concept delivers on its promise, it is enhanced with radical intelligence. Working with partners, investors and the customers, Lakeba’s team refines and optimises the operations and distribution to rapidly commercialise the venture. This ensures the business continuously delivers value to customers as it scales and diversifies across industries and the globe.

Lakeba Group was founded by Giuseppe Porcelli, Entrepreneur and Visionary of Future Technology.
