In the past decade, the majority of wealth creation has shifted from public to private markets. However, investing in private markets, particularly startups, has been limited to a select few due to the need for personal networks to access investment opportunities, expertise to evaluate them, and adequate capital to invest. Community investing offers a solution to this problem by allowing individuals to pool their networks, expertise, and capital.
Roundtable was founded with the aim of enabling community investing in Private markets with an initial focus on start ups. We developed a platform that allows individuals to create their own communities, invite members to join, share investment opportunities in a click, and collectively pool their capital to invest in startups. By simplifying the process of pooling networks, expertise, and capital, communities on Roundtable can gain access to a greater number of investment opportunities, make informed decisions, and meet minimum investing requirements. We have also eliminated the legal and administrative obstacles that are commonly associated with community investing.
Further down the line, we will open other asset classes (such as Venture capital or Private Equity) and aim to become the one-stop shop for non-professional investors for all alternative asset investments. To achieve our vision we need to build a premium brand around Roundtable.
