Our Vision
To become the global platform for transacting commercial property. Imagine a “Transact it now” button for a property, where your entire leasing/investment transaction is digital, from marketing, and matching through to negotiation and signing. Or a world where property portfolios can be packaged up and digitally traded like any other asset class. That world is Kato.
