The investment market is rapidly changing and the current trend according to Forbes is that angel investors and venture capitalists (VC’s) are now diversifying by investing in a portfolio of companies, and business owners directly within verticals. Direct investments reflect industries such as technology, energy/green tech, consumer products, real estate, and life science and other sectors.
Traditional angels and VC’s have access to large scale financial reserves often this leads to limited investment opportunities. Now with these market changes, anyone over the age of 18 years of age, can invest using equity crowdfunding.
ArawakX does not accept investment from US and Canadian investors due to the securities laws in those countries. Otherwise, anyone can invest in companies raising capital on ArawakX.
