SellAnyCar.com
SellAnyCar.com is a Dubai-based automotive marketplace that buys used cars directly from consumers. Sellers get a free online valuation in seconds, bring the car to a branch for a free professional inspection, and receive a guaranteed offer within 30 minutes. Once accepted, the company pays by bank transfer, handles the paperwork and title transfer, and auctions the vehicle to a network of dealers. Founded in 2013 by serial entrepreneur Saygin Yalcin, it markets itself as the Middle East's first and largest car-buying service and has expanded across the UAE and into Saudi Arabia.
Forest Park Group
Forest Park Group is a San Mateo, California fintech building LoanOS, a private, permissioned blockchain platform that shrinks syndicated loan settlement from weeks to as little as T+1. Founded in 2019 by syndicated-loan veterans and distributed-computing engineers, the company targets the roughly 30,000 participants in the leveraged loan market, where deals routinely take 25+ days to settle and $92 billion in delayed-settlement exposure sits idle. By automating loan data flows through smart contracts and API-driven interfaces, LoanOS aims to make an illiquid, email-and-spreadsheet market behave more like a liquid one.
