Meet The Real Estate Tech Entrepreneur: Michael Wisnefski from MaterialsXchange

Abstract

I am one of the founders and the CEO of MaterialsXchange, the digital marketplace for lumber. What problem does your product/service solve? Materialsxchange makes it easy to buy and sell lumber by solving the problem of poor market price transparency and restricted access to trading partners. What's next for you? Our technology is built to be scalable so after lumber, MaterialsXchange will list another building material like rebar or biomass. What's a cause you're passionate about and why? I learned so many life lessons from team sports. Working together for a common goal helps shape children's futures, but not everyone can afford the equipment that goes along with those sports. Improving access to sports equipment is a priority that helps get kids out there and playing more. I am passionate about donating used sporting goods to provide an opportunity for young people to engage in various sports that require specialized equipment.
