‘Four key services are included in the new all-in-one platform: Equity, Ventures, Syndicates, and Secondaries. They all have one thing in common – Equity. It was a natural move to bring everything under the same umbrella, and for the time being, we’re focusing on developing these four services, as each is complex. SeedBlink Equity integrates Nimity features under one single brand. We’re not abandoning Nimity, but we’re simply ‘parking’ it for now,’ SeedBlink’s chief product and marketing officer Adriana Iordan explains.
