There are four, $100M+, make-your-own apparel platforms

But NONE for jewelry……why is that?

Page 4: Ring around investor_presentation

DESIGN PROBLEM:

• No quick creation tool for jewelry, you can’t

see the product before buying

• Why? ….the technology doesn’t exist yet

DESIGN SOLUTION: CURRENT

+ =

• Our 3D artists combine pre-loaded 3D templates with the customer’s artwork, creating a life-like rendering

• Distributed 3D artists are fast & cheap. This model cost $10 and was done in 1 hr

Page 5: Ring around investor_presentation

DESIGN SOLUTION: FUTURE•Develop an in-browser, logo-to-3D jewelry creation tool. This has never existed before

•We filed a provisional patent on this invention to give us time to explore creating it and adapting it to our needs

•Building it would allow us to automate both the design of jewelry and the exporting of 3D design files, which can be delivered to any casting house in the world

Page 6: Ring around investor_presentation

HOW WORKS1.

• Customer picks one of 30+ templates and uploads artwork

2.

• Customer approves design, and the item is posted for sale on RingAround

• Completed Design is emailed back to Customer for approval

1. Annual global jewelry sales of $166 billion are expected to grow at a healthy clip of 5 to 6 percent each year, totaling $250 billion by 2020

2. The share of branded (logo) jewelry has doubled since 2003, making 20% of the overall jewelry market today

3. The trends that have unfolded in the apparel sector over the last three decades appear to be playing out in the jewelry sector. Over the last two decades, “fast fashion” (Zara, H&M) has revolutionized the apparel industry

~From “The jewelry industry in 2020 - McKinsey & Company”

COMPETITION

• Excellent user generated design capabilities for hats, shirts, mugs, etc. No jewelry

• Capitalizing on the retail trend of storytelling and affinity-based designs. Too big to do custom

A first-to-market company in user-designed jewelry

• Baublebar- They launch 100 new designs every month. Not user-designed
