  • You have previously owned a product's profit and loss or key growth metrics such as revenue, retention, or engagement, with a demonstrable link between product decisions and business impact.

About the Company

Valdera

Digital matchmaking for specialized chemicals procurement

Valdera runs a digital marketplace for specialized chemicals and raw materials that connects buyers with suppliers. Buyers submit requests for custom formulations, and the platform routes these to relevant suppliers to reduce back-and-forth outreach. Suppliers gain privacy by accessing targeted buyers without exposing their full catalogs, while catalogs and product information are digitized and automated. Valdera earns money from matchmaking fees and optional premium features, with the goal of making procurement faster, simpler, and aligned with eco-friendly and sustainable inputs.
