GRIT Capital and DealMaker have formed a new partnership that aims to promote investment opportunities to the GRIT Capital network.
According to a company statement, GRIT Capital will introduce its 1.2 million investors to deals powered by DealMaker.
The two companies state that by partnering, GRIT and DealMaker will improve access to investment opportunities, help founders and funds raise capital, and drive the capital markets forward.
Genevieve Roch-Decter, founder and CEO of GRIT Capital – who is a former portfolio manager, said she is “thrilled” about the partnership, adding that the JOS Act has transformed access to capital.
“This democratization has unlocked opportunities once exclusive to the top one percent. Now, anyone with [a smartphone] can invest in the next big thing, like Uber,” said Roch-Decter. “This partnership with DealMaker transcends mere capital; it’s about empowering everyone to invest, enjoy the rewards, and actively shape the future of innovation.”
DealMaker reports over $1.8 billion in investments to date from more than 770 securities offerings.
DealMaker co-founder and CEO Rebecca Kacaba said they are very excited for their partners and issuers as it brings a 1.2 million audience, calling it a “great fit” for their partners.
