Equiem is the the world’s most developed tenant engagement platform. Originally built to allow the owners of the Rialto office tower in Melbourne to understand the needs of their tenants and use the data collected to improve their real estate product, it has grown to become the dominant platform in Australia that the owners of Class A office space use to manage the relationships with the people the use their building every day.
“In 2019 a departing employee needed to sell their shares in Equiem. This liquidity requirement was driven not just by the employee, but also by me, as I felt it was important that he was fairly rewarded for his contribution and also clearly removed of all information rights accompanying his shares, now that he was no longer part of the company. I have known the founders of SecondQuarter for some time - they bought the parcel quickly and efficiently and allowed me to focus on growing the company rather than the distraction of making a secondary market for it and they have been hugely valuable shareholders since”
