Netcapital Inc. (NCPL) is a fintech company that specializes in private securities. Founded in 2016 and based in Boston, Massachusetts, it operates the Netcapital funding portal, created for entrepreneurs and investors to collaborate and grow companies.
Netcapital's objective is to democratize the investment process by offering access to startup and growth-stage investments, once accessible only to high-net-worth individuals. NCPL abides by the JOBS Act’s Regulation Crowdfunding (Reg CF) which enables start-ups and other smaller companies to solicit investments from the general public, democratizing the funding process.
The platform has proven to be an exceptional tool for organizations, especially startups, who use it to raise capital by selling equity, debt, or other types of securities. Similarly, it gives individuals, regardless of net worth, an opportunity to invest in early-stage private companies.
Netcapital assists entrepreneurs in multiple ways. NCPL holds their hands through the fundraising process, helping them navigate complex financial regulations, prepare required documents, and list their offering on the Netcapital portal.
In addition to their crowdfunding platform, NCPL has innovatively ventured into other financial services. Netcapital Systems, a wholly-owned subsidiary, builds private securities platform technologies used by brokers, issuers, and other financial entities. Moreover, Netcapital Advisors consults and connects growth stage companies with traditional venture capital.
Netcapital's team comprises financial, legal, and startup veterans who have established themselves as experts in their respective fields. The leadership features a wide array of financial veterans and tech entrepreneurs who have joined forces to break down barriers between startups and potential investors.
Netcapital Inc. (NCPL) remains committed to offering equal access to startup investments, to help growing companies build their foundations, and in turn shake up industries and markets.
