- HUM
Transportation
HUM operates as a user-centric rideshare platform HQ'ed in Phoenix, AZ, designed to disrupt the traditional rideshare market by eliminating surge pricing and allowing drivers to retain 100% of their fares. The company primarily serves urban commuters and drivers looking for a more equitable rideshare experience. HUM's business model focuses on transparency and fairness, ensuring that every dollar spent is clear to both drivers and riders. The company generates revenue through a subscription model where drivers pay a monthly fee to access the platform, rather than taking a percentage of each fare. This approach not only maximizes earnings for drivers but also provides cost-effective rides for passengers. By leveraging technology and a user-first approach, HUM Rideshare aims to create a more sustainable and fair rideshare ecosystem.

- IDX Digital Assets
Fintech
IDX Digital Assets operates as a quantitative asset manager with a specific focus on the cryptocurrency and digital asset markets. They launched their initial products in August 2021 to address the growing investor appetite for crypto exposure, combined with a desire for a risk-managed approach to mitigate the sector's inherent volatility. The company's core business revolves around providing investment products that aim to capture the upside potential of digital assets while protecting against significant drawdowns. It serves a diverse clientele that includes institutional investors, retail investors, family offices, and Registered Investment Advisors (RIAs). Revenue is generated through asset-based management fees for its investment products. A key milestone for the company was its collaboration with S&P Dow Jones Indices to calculate and launch the first risk-managed crypto indices in June 2021, namely the IDX Risk-Managed Bitcoin Index and the IDX Risk-Managed Ethereum Index. This partnership provides a transparent, rules-based foundation for its investment trusts. The firm's flagship products are the IDX Risk-Managed Bitcoin Trust and the IDX Risk-Managed Ethereum Trust. These are private, open-ended trusts that employ a proprietary, rules-based strategy to dynamically allocate capital between the underlying crypto asset (Bitcoin or Ethereum) and cash, depending on the perceived market risk. This mechanism allows the trusts to move up to 100% into cash to safeguard capital during unfavorable market conditions. The company also offers the IDX Risk-Managed Digital Assets Strategy Fund (BTIDX), a mutual fund that invests in CME Bitcoin Futures and publicly traded companies in the Bitcoin industry.
