Presenter Profile How they describe themselves: Kabbage provides working capital to online merchants as they list products for sale, leveraging information generally available on online marketplaces to assess risk and help determine advance amounts and related fees and interest. This approach allows Kabbage to understand our borrowers better and, as a result, provide them with cash and when they need it.

How they describe their product/innovation: Kabbage has launched the SocialClimbing™ feature of its system, which enables online merchants to associate their social activities with their Kabbage account. By doing so, Kabbage incorporates information from these social media sites to underwrite risk and enable online merchants to receive a benefit by actively engaging with audiences interested in their products and services.
