RedBridge Trading is poised to launch in the next 90-120 days and will disrupt two marketplaces; the used electronics market and the nonprofit fundraising field. We plan on changing the way we all look at the technology that is all around us and how to create value for donors, causes, and companies that support causes. The average American home currently has over $300 in used often discarded electronics that could generate much needed funds for local, national or international causes. By bringing value, convenience and safety to the process of selling and buying used electronics across multiple marketplaces, IOS Application, E-commerce website, and brick and mortar location we are ready to change how we all look at used electronics forever. I am proud to assume this position at RedBridge Trading and look forward to the challenges ahead and to advocating social entrepreneurship across America.
