Disruptor, TransBridj Announced as a Finalist in Proptech Innovator Award by API
South Africa’s fastest, most secure and only digitised bridging funding platform, TransBridj, has been announced as a finalist in the ‘Most Innovative Proptech Company of the Year’ award as part of the Annual Africa Proptech Forum, hosted by the Africa Property Investment (API) Summit. The awards will be handed out on the 18th of September 2025 at the 16th API Summit at The Westin in Cape Town.
TransBridj CEO, Michale Lenz, is delighted with the finalist announcement and says that it is further proof that the bridging funding sector is in dire need of disruption: “A massive opportunity exists for us to redefine property transaction funding through automation and seamless digital integration. The potential of this award means a great to us as a close team passionate about developing this market-first.”
Built for attorneys, realtors and property sellers, TransBridj leverages smart technology to accelerate deal closures, ensure accelerated fee settlements, unlock liquidity and eliminate manual processes. “We have used an intuitive, tech-driven interface to develop a future-first solution offering a frictionless, fast-track funding experience – delivering approvals and disbursements within 24 hours of the transaction being accepted,” explains Lenz.
Bringing together industry leaders, investors, and innovators, this pan-African forum will highlight how rapid technological advances are enabling faster decision-making, innovative asset development, and more transparent management across the continent’s diverse property landscape. Lenz says that this makes it a perfect place for TransBridj, which is also a silver sponsor of the event.
“The API Summit’s broader theme is “Growth through Adventure,” and it will showcase how cutting-edge technology unlocks efficiencies and opportunities. TransBridj is a perfect example of this, and we are looking forward to the summit and hopefully to also celebrate a win.”
