EquityZen is a financial technology investment platform and private market marketplace that connects shareholders of private companies (often employees or early investors looking to sell their equity) with accredited investors seeking access to pre-IPO investment opportunities. It simplifies secondary market transactions in late-stage private company stock by providing a clear process and structured investment products that help introduce liquidity to traditionally illiquid private markets and enable participation in the growth of leading private firms. Since its 2013 launch, EquityZen’s marketplace has facilitated tens of thousands of private placements across hundreds of companies, bringing together buyers and sellers and offering pooled investment vehicles and direct share acquisitions to accredited investors. Its tools and network aim to unlock equity compensation value for shareholders while giving investors diversified access to private company shares.
