Nth Round

Nth Round, founded in 2018 and based in Philadelphia, is a "comprehensive equity management platform for companies of all stages and sizes" and can enable startups and SMEs to "manage equity, engage shareholders, and facilitate liquidity in an all-in-one secure environment" according to its website. No one can underestimate the financial strain Covid-19 has put on startups - especially where funding is concerned. However, the services offered by Nth Round's are perhaps more important now than ever before. Having raised USD$4.3 million in seed funding initially, Nth Round is an invaluable lifeline for companies in need of accessing their liquidity. Nth Round's website stresses, "we envision a time in the near future when founders, family members, investors, and key employees will be free to buy or sell their shares at any time, without worry, hassle, or prohibitive fees. Of the range of services offered, Nth Round can provide: employee incentives, ownership transference, stakeholder management and unlocking liquidity. Free resources are also offered to "educate fledgling enterprises" on how to expand.
