Real Items Jobs

Real Items' mission is to accelerate the world's transition to sustainable products. The world is consuming resources beyond the planet's ability to replace them, consuming the resources of 1 and 3/4 Earths. If we continue down this path, we will run out of natural resources in 20 years. This crazy experiment needs to end. We at Real Items are building digital product solutions to enable enterprises to create new business models to evolve their inventory and products into the next-generation of innovation and sustainability. What SpaceX did for the space industry and what Tesla did for the automotive industry, Real Items is doing for the ownership economy. We are supporting the circular economy combining it with blockchain technology to assist global enterprises in their transition to more sustainable models of consumption. The Internet of Ownership begins here.

Here is a recent talk we gave at the Polygon Green Blockchain Summit that outlines Real Items' mission: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gc0Hr6vyJ7U
