Using Blockchain to Democratize Access to Real Estate – Mohsin Masud – AKRU

In Cinncinati, Ohio, we spoke to Mohsin Masud, the Founder and CEO of AKRU, an exciting startup aiming to democratise access to commercial real estate. Speaking to Doug Mackenzie, Masud explains how they are offering fractional real estate investing by taking one of the most exclusive asset classes and allowing everyday investors to take part.

And it’s all being powered by the blockchain. In this interesting conversation you’ll hear all about how that works and also why, despite not being a US native, Masud has decided to stay in Ohio and operate his business from here.
