EQUI - Bringing Venture Capital into the Modern Technological Era
EQUI combines the concept of venture capitalism with cryptocurrency to defy the norm and launch an investment platform for ordinary investors.
The Blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies are hot items in the business world; it is no surprise that technology has completely disrupted how industries and large companies conduct business. In addition, EQUI did not lose any second in introducing a new way on how everyday people can invest in high stake companies by using cryptocurrencies. A cryptocurrency-powered investment platform is created on Ethereum Blockchain. The goal of this business venture is to transform the traditional venture capital market with the launch of EQUItoken. This token facilitates investment opportunities for ordinary people in real assets, start-up companies and exciting ventures that is meant to change the market landscape.
Traditional venture capitalism would have high net-worth individuals or institutions, but with the entry of EQUI, it provides nonprofessional investors opportunity to invest in early-stage technologies. But two business icons have defied the norm and launch a revolutionary endeavor.
The founder of the company, Doug Barrowman has more than 30 years of experience in choosing the right investments that deliver results. His new venture aims at letting ordinary investors and the crypto community get the slice of the pie. With access to selected companies with bright technological future provides a good market opportunity and provide room for new faces in market leadership.
Another founder Baroness Mone studied the number of startups in unprivileged areas in the UK and how to increase them and what are the barriers they face when they are starting the business. With this study, the company was founded. The investors who will commit EQUItokens to the opportunities available in the platform is set to benefit 70% of the capital gain from that project. The investor can handpicked companies from the platform or invest in all, either way, they will have a diversified portfolio based on their interests. In addition, the platform also provides EQUIcredits to the investors when they park their EQUIcoins for at least three months. This loyalty scheme gives back five percent reward to these investors.
The difference between EQUIcoin and ICO
There is a difference between EQUIcoin and ICO as stressed by the founder. ICO is the abbreviation for Initial Coin Offering, which works in the same way as the traditional IPO, albeit it is in cryptocurrency. EQUIcoin, on the other hand, has a real value equivalent to the investments showcased on the platform. In other words, the value of the EQUIcoin is real. It dismisses the notion that this new venture capital is a fraud.
Many are skeptical about the launch of the platform since 2018 is a volatile year for cryptocurrencies coupled with regulatory pressure. However, according to the founders, the bitcoin prices will rise again.
To invest in an ambitious venture like EQUI with a potential to disrupt the status quo is tricky but if they do succeed, the rewards are remarkable, and they can be the potential leaders in the industry. In a traditional market scenario, this privilege is reserved for the elite who has access to huge capital. However, EQUI is brave enough to challenge the status quo and provide a platform for ordinary investors to have that by marrying venture capital with modern technology.
