Problem
Startups and SMEs face challenges in accessing capital due to high entry barriers and limited liquidity in traditional private equity markets. Existing equity crowdfunding platforms often lack the regulatory framework and secondary market infrastructure necessary for efficient digital asset offerings.
Solution

The platform lowers the barrier to entry for investors by allowing investments starting from €1 and offers a secondary market for real-time trading of these digital assets. By providing a neo-bourse for companies, Kriptown enhances liquidity and accessibility in private equity investments, allowing for real-time exchange via an asset exchange that facilitates purchase and sale orders. Kriptown is registered with the AMF as a PSAN and with the CSSF as an agent of an electronic money issuer.
