Envestors empowers start-ups with the launch of stand-alone Equity Crowdfunding Platform – the first to give control back to the entrepreneur

Envestors launches the first-ever fully ‘owned’ crowdfunding platform, to support start-up and scale-up companies throughout their growth cycle

January 30th, 2019, London – Envestors, the fintech for fundraising company, has launched a Software-as-a-Service platform for start-ups and scale-ups to raise funds and manage investors from seed through to maturity. The platform, Envestry for Scale-Ups, has been proven across a base of over 50 customers and – uniquely – gives companies total control of their fundraising activities.

Fundraising for growth businesses has always been challenging. It’s time-consuming, expensive and there are no guarantees of success. Exacerbating these challenges are complicated regulatory requirements that prevent businesses from promoting their investment opportunities to more than 150 people. Until now, that has meant that businesses have to work with a middleman to raise funds. In exchange for support, companies sacrifice control, typically over campaign length, branding and ownership of investor data – which is crucial for subsequent funding rounds. Envestry for Scale-ups empowers companies by giving them their own crowdfunding platform for the duration of the growth phase, which will typically include three to five funding rounds.
