“Over the last 12 months, we’ve seen an unprecedented shift in attitude and awareness on the impact of social media on the lives and well-being of young people. 

Ultimately, these platforms are funded by marketing dollars, and advertisers are looking for new, meaningful ways to connect with young people outside of social media.

Our Attention Exchange® is that alternative.”

Guillaume Kendall, Founder and CEO, Zedosh

Executive Summary

Zedosh is rewriting the rules of how consumers and advertisers interact online. The company is an early-stage fintech building the digital advertising rails for a cookieless, privacy-first internet.

Zedosh has developed an Attention Exchange® that puts consumers and their data at the forefront of the attention economy, sitting at the centre of a fair and transparent marketplace where advertisers, publishers, and consumers connect to participate in an exchange of value and information.

The consumer gets paid directly in return for providing both their banking transactions and their valuable attention to video advertising. Zedosh believes that’s fairer than paying Big Tech to interrupt consumers whilst getting paid for the consumers’ attention.

The impact of the iOS app tracking transparency and Google replacing cookies is already being felt on the bottom line of Big Tech. Additionally, pressure from advertisers and regulators is increasing on social media to moderate the hate, misinformation, and fraud on their platforms.

The foundations of the $400B digital advertising industry, where $70B is expected to be lost to fraud, are now ripe for disruption.

Capital Insights
Why Are Fewer Companies Going Public?

The number of companies listing on the ASX has declined, driven by access to private capital, regulatory burdens, and market volatility. However, public markets still offer liquidity, visibility, and robust capital-raising opportunities.
