In Our Clients' Words

“Through EquityZen, I got cash for my private stock, at both a better price and larger volume than the company itself offered through SecondMarket. The whole process was very straightforward and efficient.”

—Lucas, ex-employee, billion-dollar company

“It was great doing business with you guys. You are much better than your competitors who I was dealing with! 10 million times!”

Investments in private placements holding pre-IPO companies are speculative, illiquid, and carry a high degree of risk, including loss of principal. Investments made on the EquityZen platform are made through pooled investment vehicles, which acquire shares of private technology companies, and are not direct investments in these companies.

Crain's

“EquityZen believes it has found an alternative that avoids those hassles by allowing employees to sell the rights to the cash their shares will fetch when their company goes public or is acquired.”

Judith Messina, CRAIN'S New York Business

“[Secondary markets] allow for different classes of companies that can encourage trading of their shares if it suits their business needs and objectives.”
