MicroVentures operates an equity crowdfunding platform that allows both accredited and non-accredited investors to invest in high-growth startups and private market opportunities. The platform simplifies the investment process by providing access to early-stage investment opportunities that were once limited to venture capitalists and institutional investors. MicroVentures generates revenue through a dual-fee structure, where investors pay a fee based on their investment amount, and companies pay a fee to list their fundraising campaigns. Additionally, the company offers educational resources to help investors understand the risks and make informed decisions about equity crowdfunding. This focus on accessibility and education sets MicroVentures apart from its competitors in the fintech market.
