Co-founder and board member · 2022 to 2024
Secret Shares AG
Operational processes and a complete back-end solution for a new stock corporation that opens up stakes in startups before their IPO to private individuals. Successful exit after two years of building.
Starting point
A newly founded stock corporation was to give individuals access to stakes in startups before their IPO, with a focus on commodity companies and technology. In the normal market environment, such stakes usually stay closed to private investors.
Approach
- Co-developed the overall concept and set up the corporation’s operational processes
- Complete back-end solution with a technical team: management of inquiries and shareholders, share register, internal exchange and sales platform for shares
- Made use of the legal form: shares can be transferred under the applicable rules without needing a notary appointment every time, as is the case with GmbH shares
- Created sales strategy materials and presentations
My role
Co-founder and board member: co-developed the overall concept and was responsible for the complete implementation with a technical team.
Result
Investors could take part, within a manageable scope, in companies that would otherwise have stayed closed to them. After two years of building, my successful exit followed.
