New York based platform which lets non-accredited investors buy startup stakes raised $150m in Series B funding led by Valor Equity Partners.
Asked how Republic manages it all, Nguyen says “not to think of it as different platforms” but a company that can cater to everyone, no matter their interests or bank account balance. “If you’re a multimillionaire coming to Republic and it’s not worth your time to make a $100 investment but you want to deploy $100,000, we have those opportunities to present to you. If you’re 20 years old, and you want to invest $20 in a video game or in real estate or in a female founder, we have those opportunities, too.”
