It was developed with small and middle businesses, entrepreneurs, and freelance professionals in mind. In order to suit the needs of these groups, SOLVVE had to come up with a solution combining the functionality of a social network, a marketplace, and a collaboration space.

Solutions

After considering the manifold functional requirements of the platform from the perspectives of its stakeholders (businesses, entrepreneurs, freelancers) SOLVVE developed MNASSA as a mobile solution for both iOS and Android.
