Holidaymakers tend to return home with around £110 in foreign currency, which tends to go un-exchanged possibly due to hidden fees, lack of ease and simplicity, or poor buy-back rates. Bedwig aims to solve this issue by creating a P2P platform for buyers and sellers to exchange unused currency whilst taking a commission to support the service.

Business Finance Market (BFM) is a financial technology platform that stimulates the market towards Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) lending via data in the UK. BFM claims that SMEs are gradually being excluded from mainstream banking. The company cites that in 1988, 40% of all bank lending went to SMEs. BFM points out that lending today is closer to 4% with an estimated £22 billion funding gap to the 5.9 million UK SMEs. BFM asserts that almost 90% of SME loan applications are stuck due to a lack of choice and transparency when it comes to securing finance. BFM aspires to solve this dilemma. It states that its technology allows SMEs to experience quicker finance decisions based on true addressable market access and allows lenders and intermediaries access to its platform to help manage the end-to-end application process, improve deal flow, and deliver faster credit decisions. BFM intends to exit via a trade sale within the financial sector.

Facebook, YouTube and others try, but they have not accommodated segmentation of sports users. • Latest sports products will be targeted to users via advertisements relevant to their specific interest. • Delivering a continually expanding and evolving library, always providing current information • Website structure that encourages ‘social activity’ and ‘networking’ between coaches and other members, www.coachanyway.com is the’ Linkedin for Sports Coaches’ Our Proposed Business Model:1) During the Beta stage of development we will be able to track the top 8 leading sports that havetriggered the most interest from the public.

The World’s First Specialist Augmented Reality App StoreAugmented reality is all around us – from our mobiles to television adverts. By 2017 it is estimated that the AR market will be worth an astonishing £5.2 billion, so it makes absolute sense to have a specialist site to make it easier to buy them.Currently the AR apps are hidden in the millions of apps on the current congested platforms making it much harder to get them to market.With everyone from football clubs to newspapers and even global cosmetics brands promoting their products using augmented reality the market is wide open for expansion.The AR App Store is working on exclusive deals with leading app developers producing next generation apps in the following fields: education, modelling, militaria, architecture, football, technology, anatomy and food. Once the UK site has been tested and established it will be rolled out to Europe, the US and worldwide.Founder Karl Adams who has spent the last 18 months developing this project says “Augmented Reality is not just a concept it is a practical “virtual reality” that will become a way of the future and a reality right now. It allows the user to have apps on their tablets and smart phones enabling them to conduct pleasure and business interactions with products, in a new interactive and totally engaging way”.
