I'm Michael, founder of Givgive — a platform for hyperlocal sharing. After burning out building a startup in exile, I wrote Crazy Startuper. It’s a survival story. Now I'm building city by city and sharing what I’ve learned along the way.

Is it really good to succeed at a young age?
I often met people with the mindset:
"I'll work hard until I'm 30, and then I'll enjoy the fruits of my labour."
Many people wanted to get into the Forbes 30 Under 30.
Are We Finally Ready to Share More and Own Less?
We ve seen it with music (Spotify), movies (Netflix), and even cars (Uber). But what about everything else drills, strollers, suitcases, waffle makers?
I m Mikhail, founder of Givgive, a platform for local sharing and smart asset management. Our idea is simple: what if you could turn your unused stuff into income, or access everything you need by subscription from your neighborhood?
Do you believe people are ready to stop owning and start sharing real physical goods?
What are the barriers trust, logistics, habits?
Building Givgive — Our Vision for a New Sharing Economy
Hey PH community
I m Mikhail, founder of Givgive a platform for hyperlocal sharing and community-powered sustainability.
Imagine a world where you borrow a drill from a neighbor instead of buying one. Where trust and generosity drive access to everyday items. That s what we re building.
Givgive is more than a tool it s a movement. We re starting city by city, and just ran our first pilots.
