Most Innovative PropTech Ecosystem – UK 2025
Spotting a gap in the market for an improved house/property buying and selling process, in 2009, iamproperty co-founders Jamie Cooke and Ben Ridgway, who met at university in Newcastle, launched a cutting-edge digital property auction service, giving buyers/sellers an improved option – one characterised by speed, security and transparency. Together they pioneered an innovative new online auction method – the Modern Method of Auction – to bring a fast, secure, transparent way of buying/selling to thousands of people, taking much of the risk out of the auction process and transforming it from a “last port of call” into a solution which consumers could trust and more easily understand. Today, iamproperty is a >£100m revenue proptech business, proudly based in the North East, with 700+ people, providing Estate Agents with an ecosystem of integrated digital solutions designed to make the property transaction process more seamless for everyone involved.
