About us

Guan Xi

Through our business and product vision we’ve set out to shape a product that helps people build meaningful relationships that means more than a stack of business cards.

It emphasises implicit mutual obligations, reciprocity and trust. It’s how you set yourself up for success.

Despite guanxi being a Chinese word, it is a universal concept which exists in every culture.
