Co-Founder & CEO, Meet George
Joshua spent 10 years at THIS Workspace working with SMEs. Every time energy came up, brokers pitched "the best rate" - but no one could verify what they were adding as commission. That's why he's building Meet George: self-service switching where you see everything.

THIS Workspace
10 years at a 60,000 sq ft flexible workspace where member companies paid one all-in fee and we handled everything - including energy. That meant dealing with brokers directly. Every renewal, same story: promises of "the best rate", no way to verify what they were adding on top. That frustration became the starting point for Meet George.
