We are excited to present our second Demo Day!

At Flori, we invest more than money. We believe in collective power and promote
strategy, technology, marketing, and product partnerships among our portfolio
companies and across the wider Celo community.

By adding momentum to the right financial innovations,  Flori founders are clearing a path to a more inclusive
financial system. Together, we can reimagine what money stands for, reengineer
what it can do, **and unlock prosperity for all.**

This batch of companies includes high-growth companies from around the world
building solutions on Celo. From talent platforms to carbon tracking systems,
automated trading platforms to NFT marketplaces, we've brought together the
most innovative companies in the web3 space.

Stabiliti has built a blockchain based technology solution called CarbonTrack for tracking and managing verified carbon credits, across the full lifecycle of their journey.

We integrate with web3 protocols, including smart contracts, to enable offsetting of metaverse transactions and NFT drops.

We enable producers to record, manage and sell their verified carbon credits. The credits themselves are formalised as tradable crypto assets together with the information evidence associated with the credit certification process.

Stabiliti’s proprietary technology, on which CarbonTrack is built, provides layer 2 blockchain features and scalability, coupled with a powerful and unique tracking and tracing capability that allows any participant within the ecosystem to see (and trace back to) the exact time and source of the value of any verified carbon credit. The ability to intrinsically link information, securely and accurately to each carbon credit at any point in time with accuracy and immutability offers an unparalleled level of audibility, accountability and reporting that just doesn’t exist within the current voluntary carbon offset market.

## Aya is a marketplace for businesses to access qualified web3 talent in Africa. You can think of us as African Upwork but for web3 talents.

## How it works

## businesses and companies can upload their talent needs, and our product will surface the right talent. It's that simple.

## The problem

## getting access to talent is incredibly fragmented, expensive and unqualified. However, our secret is that we run a Pan African aggregator of the blockchain community in about 17 African countries, with partner communities members, giving us access to the right talents, and go through our vetting process to fit into any culture seamlessly.
