Smartlands January Achievements, Triumphs, and Updates
Welcome to another edition of the Smartlands Newsletter – your monthly recap of the best breaking news and updates.
Jan 2020 has been marked by a series of developments that are sure to make this traditionally uneventful month stand out in the entire history of the company. Without a doubt, the update to our strategic roadmap is a centerpiece of the importance cake. Rest assured that the general direction of Smartlands remains unchanged – we continue to push for the development of Smartlands + Smartee as a global investment and digital banking ecosystem, and our US expansion is still in full force as well as the UK Sotheby’s offering that’s currently undergoing final stages of preparation.

In light of the strategic update, we felt that changes needed to be made to the Smartlands business model. Given our current market position, the focus of the company is shifting towards the interests of high-net-worth individuals, family offices, and institutional investors. In no way that is to say that we are leaving behind our long-time supporters in the retail sector, not at all. As John Wick would put it, ‘we have served, and we will be of service.” But having consulted with leading experts in the financial sector and studied the aspirations of our current and potential clients rigorously, we have concluded that the market is much better prepared for private wealth management at the moment. However, we remain confident that ultimately this model will benefit all users of the Smartlands Platform. Read the full report here.

Smartlands’ Way of Seeking Out Best Talent on the Market
One of the reasons Smartlands is conducting a sale of an equity stake in Smartlands Holding LTD is to raise enough capital to beef up our internal engineering team.
