Pitch
Benben is a digital land information platform that aims to tackle the inefficiencies of land administration to promote investment, reduce poverty and encourage transparent land resource management. They leverage Blockchain technology to provide Governments, Financial Institutions, Realtors and the general public instant access to property information through an easy to use searchable interface. They interface with their customers to enable them to digitally make payments on their land/property i.e property tax, annual rents, mineral royalties etc. Financial institutions utilize this trusted land information to provide lending to properties facilitating the release of greatly needed trapped capital.
