Our Founding Partners, including Akuna`s CEO Andrew Killion, first conceptualized Akuna in their hometown of Sydney.

Today, Akuna is proud to operate from additional offices in Sydney, Shanghai, and Boston. We are the leading options market-maker to successfully enter the industry in recent years with sustainable growth. By providing more liquidity to the markets through rapid innovation, we have the advantage of youth in remaining nimble and agile in an ever-changing competitive landscape. Akuna has no clients or external investors, we trade only with the company`s capital. We have dozens of employee-shareholders and this number continues to grow. We are really proud of what we have accomplished since inception, but even more excited for all that lies ahead of us.

Eli Global was established by a young entrepreneur almost three decades ago—with no financial backing and a lot of naysayers. He believed that he could take on and beat the market leaders in his industry. Armed with his self-drive, passion, determination and entrepreneurial spirit, he persevered after years of 100+ hour work weeks, numerous failures, worrying about month-end payroll, and even sleeping under his desk at times. He grew his business organically to be the national leader in his industry and then set out to grow even more. The secret to his success? Finding like-minded people who experienced similar hardships and successes. Over the past 25 years Eli Global has grown to partner with over 80 such entrepreneurs, welcoming their businesses to our ever-growing group of entrepreneurial, independent businesses. And this is just the beginning.
Noble People is a creative media agency. Media planning is half of that equation. The real aim of media planning is to find ways to spend the least amount of money possible to achieve your business goal. The key to achieving this is understanding that media can be anything between a brand and an audience and that technology and innovation beats scale. But unless you`re asking experienced people with integrity to take that task on, you`re probably just in the game of media spending. And that game favors the guy with the most money. The other half of the equation is creativity. Creative media planning means finding smarter ways to make an impact. It`s what media planning should be, but sadly isn`t, so we make that distinction. It means making that money count.
