Why Paperbridge
Built for organisations that can't afford to lose their institutional knowledge.
In 1922, Hadley Hemingway left a suitcase packed with nearly every manuscript her husband Ernest had ever written unattended for a few minutes at a train station in Paris.
It was stolen, never recovered.
No copy existed anywhere else. Years of work, gone for good.
Hemingway later wrote that he still remembered that night, and what he did after he found out it was true.
We can only imagine what that was.
Today, that kind of loss is preventable.
Paperbridge is built for organisations that can't afford to lose their institutional knowledge.
