Houzz is the world's largest online platform for home design and renovation, described by Pando Daily as "one of the most promising consumer-facing companies of this generation". Ranked by Fast Company as the world's 11th most innovative business. Houzz was started by a husband and wife who wanted to remodel their house. Frustrated by how hard the whole process was, they built a site where home professionals can show their work, and homeowners can find over 7 million categorized photos, ideas, advice, products & professional reviews in a community where both sides can find each other. Houzz is revolutionizing the $1.2+ Trillion home renovation and home furnishings industry with a combination of mobile, local, social and visual technologies. We've built a community of more than 35 million design-obsessed monthly unique users (90% are home owners) & over 800,000 registered local home improvement professionals. Our Houzz Shop features over 3 million home related products which you can buy online. In addition to the core website, we have the highest-rated lifestyle iPad app in the Apple AppStore. And have one of the world's most popular iPhone & Android apps with over 300,000 5 star reviews. We have raised over $200M from several top venture capital firms including Sequoia, GGV Capital and Comcast Ventures & we're generating revenue by delivering products that address the needs of homeowners, local professionals & global brands. We have an entrepreneurial culture, a warm work environment, and a close-knit family.

Since 1996 booking sites like Expedia or Booking have controlled the digital travel space collecting commissions as high as 30%. This landscape can't add value to travelers and hotels in the future. Hotel P2P is a peer-to-peer platform that connects all decentralized hotels into just One Global Hotel. We eliminate the intermediaries in the value chain by reducing the commissions to ZERO and we turn the invisible and intangible accommodation time into something digital that you can use, exchange, sell or share with family, friends or travelers. This is our vision of the future: vimeo.com/134204980 From June 2015 to Present (7 months)
