Kinnek
Kinnek is the marketplace for high-cost purchases by small and medium-sized businesses. SMBs use antiquated methods for purchasing customized equipment and bulk supplies. Pricing for these purchases is offline, and calling suppliers is time-consuming and ineffective. Kinnek is disrupting this $2.2 trillion space by enabling businesses to get tailored quotes from many qualified suppliers using a single request.
