Companisto
Companisto (www.companisto.com) is the market leader in equity-based crowdfunding in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. Equity-based crowdfunding means that many investors team up to provide venture capital to a start-up or growth company. The investors - also called Companists - can make an investment of their choice in the start-up and, in turn, participate in the profits and in a potential sale of the start-up (exit participation). To date, Companisto has more than 60,000 registered investors who have invested a total of over EUR 32.5 million in 64 financing campaigns for start-ups and growth companies. Companisto is the most active private venture capital company in Germany as measured by the amount of published financing rounds (source: BVK).
