Travelio
Travelio is an Indonesian property-technology company that runs an online marketplace and end-to-end management platform for apartments, houses and villas. Founded in Jakarta in 2015, it lets landlords hand over units for professional management while giving tenants furnished, standardized homes they can book and pay for daily, monthly or annually - including a rare month-by-month payment option in a market that traditionally demands a full year up front. Often called 'Indonesia's Airbnb,' Travelio manages roughly 15,000 exclusive properties across a dozen cities and is expanding into rent-to-own housing.

Through acquisitions, franchising and a partner network, Blueground has expanded from an Athens startup into one of the largest curated networks of flexible furnished homes worldwide.
Cameron Johnson
Cameron Johnson is the founder and CEO of Nickson, a Dallas-based furniture-as-a-service startup that furnishes an entire apartment with 250-plus items in as little as three hours, by app. A former institutional real estate investor who spent 15 years at firms like Goldman Sachs, Walton Street Capital and Greystar before earning an MBA at Harvard, Johnson noticed renters trying to 'rent the model apartment' on tours and built a company around that impulse.
