Better Than New

Better Than New (BTN) is an early-stage venture built inside Byld, a Madrid-based corporate venture builder, in partnership with insurer Caser. It adds insurance-backed protection to peer-to-peer second-hand product sales, aiming to make used goods as trustworthy and appealing to buy as new ones.
