Bloomio is working on redesigning the venture capital industry. Bloomio provides a crowdfunding platform, that connects early-stage startups with individual investors and venture funds. The platform allows startup founders to raise capital by tokenizing equity and gives investors a possibility to trade startup stakes through a secure blockchain-based marketplace.

Traditional VC investors mainly focus on larger deal sizes of more than 0K, leaving small room for individual investors to enter the early stage startup market.

Bloomio’s vision is to disrupt the traditional fund-raising model for startups by enabling individual investors to tap into the venture capital arena with a small ticket size starting from just around a hundred dollars.

To enter the platform, startups must either undergo a scoring process by 3rd party analysts or make specific disclosures so as to provide enough information to potential investors. Once listed on the Bloomio platform, a startup, instead of pitching VCs, can start its next investment round in just one mouse click, saving precious time and efforts for other tasks.
