EquiConnector – the shared joy of horseback riding! Personal development, health benefits, stress reduction, triumph, nature and cooperation. There are many reasons to spend time on equine activities. Today, this involves great economical commitments, and a lot of time. There is often lack of information on what equine availability and few flexible solutions. This we aim to change! EquiConnector is working on network solutions for the equine industry, for everyone who wishes to can participate in equine activities, regardless of economy and schedule. To achieve this, we will first use the principle of digitalization and sharing economy. Therefore, we have designed a digital meeting place to find a vacant horse, rider or lesson. This is planned for launch in 2019. Equi stems from the Latin word for horse, which is the basis for our name EquiConnector, where our goal is to connect the equine community. In this way, a stressed horse owner can acquire help from an experienced rider without difficulty. For the equestrian centers, this solution will pave the way for simple booking and marketing of vacant slots on riding lessons. Search, payments and contracts will go seamlessly through EquiConnector. This is the first step towards a new and flexible equine industry. We have several projects in the horizon, all with the same goal; the shared joy of horseback riding!
