Dympol gives people reasons to care, and advertisers, a better option.Dympol's transactional advertising platform introduces the accountability of performance advertising to branded entertainment and cause marketing. We deliver measurable engagement by linking advertisers directly to sports and entertainment fans. How do we achieve double-digit conversion rates? We don't interrupt; we empower. Brands get noticed in a positive way that earns genuine appreciation.We convert passionate fans into loyal customers with exclusive and relevant deals and other benefits.

When fans give to celebrity-endorsed causes, they get brand-sponsored discounts and are publicly thanked by their heroes on social networks. The app can live in e-commerce checkouts, on social networks, or as a mobile app that enables event-based activation (with instant rewards like VIP access). Founder, Jay Ziskrout, is a former Punk Rock star, commercial pilot, gentleman farmer, international media exec. and tech entrepreneur (Arista/BMG, Epitaph Europe, Grita!/Latinovision, and The CMJ Network) working to make good things happen at checkout.

- Agricorp International Development Limited — Agricorp is a proudly Nigerian company that provides global exports to clients of ginger sourced in key trading markets in Kaduna (Nigeria). We currently have an origination processing facility in Nigeria.In 2019, the team invested in building a semi-mechanized processing facility in Kaduna, capable of processing over 5,000MT of ginger annually.The facility employs over 100 local workers (80% women) in the cleaning and sorting sections of the process. In 2020, the company established its UK entity (Agricorp Inc.) to support its marketing efforts in pushing more products to Europe.Nigeria is the second largest producer of ginger in the world, but meagerly accounts for just 3.5% of the export market share due to capacity constraints and consistency. With this investment, Agricorp can deliver on exporting ginger and other processed spices to major buyers in the Middle East, Europe and America.
