🌍 International
No borders on good ideas.
What Is It?
The International initiative connects entrepreneurs worldwide to the Liana Banyan platform, with special focus on displaced founders and cross-border collaboration.
🎯 10,000 Founding Members Goal
We’re building toward 10,000 Founding Members who will own the platform they help build.
The Math
| Milestone | Members | Net Revenue | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Break-even | ~500 | $0 | 🎯 First goal |
| Year 1 profitable | 1,000 | $420K | 🎯 Sustainable |
| Year 3 target | 10,000 | $21M | 🎯 Scale |
Break-even at 500 members. That’s not a projection — that’s the math.
What 10,000 Means
- Collective ownership of $2B+ platform value
- Lifetime Value per member: $207,005
- LTV:CAC ratio: 4,140:1 (industry average: 3:1)
You’re not buying a product. You’re buying equity in a system designed to return 200x your contribution over time.
🚢 The Rescue Fleet
Immediate Response: 40K Canada Visa Crisis
Canada just canceled 40,000 startup visas. That’s 40,000 entrepreneurs with skills, ideas, and nowhere to go.
We’re offering:
- Positions — Real work on a real platform
- Skills → Joules — Convert expertise to ownership
- Work → Credits — Earn immediately
- Community → Network — 40,000 fellow founders
You clearly need us. We clearly need you. Let’s go.
Why This Works
Traditional systems extract value. Liana Banyan distributes it.
Every stranded founder who joins:
- Gains immediate earning capacity
- Builds equity in a global platform
- Connects to 40K potential collaborators
- Gets the infrastructure they were going to build anyway
💱 Three-Gear Currency System
Solving international participation:
| Currency | Function | For Whom |
|---|---|---|
| Credits | Immediate transactions | Everyone |
| Marks | Effort-bridging | Weak-currency economies |
| Joules | Value storage | Strong-currency economies |
Equal participation regardless of origin country.
A developer in Lagos earns the same ownership as a developer in London — measured by contribution, not exchange rates.
How It Works
- Join from anywhere — Platform is global
- Contribute skills — Earn ownership proportional to contribution
- Build locally — Distributed manufacturing nodes
- Connect globally — Network effects benefit all
