Democratizing Access to Private Markets - A Review of the Linqto and Glint Fireside Chat

Joe Endoso, Chief Operating Officer of Linqto, recently joined Jason Cozens, Founder and CEO of Glint, for an insightful fireside chat on democratizing access to private market investments.

The conversation covered a range of topics relevant to investors looking to diversify their portfolios beyond traditional public markets. Endoso explained how Linqto provides accredited investors with instant, low-cost access to shares in leading private tech companies typically backed by top Silicon Valley VC funds. 

He highlighted how the private market for tech investments has historically been closed off, available only to elite institutional investors and ultra high net worth individuals. Linqto aims to change that by allowing anyone who meets accreditation standards to build a diversified portfolio starting with just $5,000. 

Endoso shared data showing how venture capital investments have dramatically outperformed major public market indices and other alternative assets over the past 25 years. For those looking to grow their wealth in today's high inflation environment, private market exposure appears essential. 

Cozens noted how Linqto's approach helps democratize access to these lucrative investments, providing a welcome alternative to traditional VC funds that require high minimum investments and lock up capital for years. 

The conversation touched on Linqto's proprietary liquidity solution that enables real-time trading, as well as the diverse range of tech companies on its platform across sectors like fintech, crypto, AI and more. 

For investors looking to add exposure beyond gold and public stocks and ETFs, Linqto provides an intuitive way to tap into Silicon Valley returns. The chat made clear why Linqto has built such an enthusiastic following among its members. 

With more uncertainty looming in 2023, it may be the perfect time to explore the opportunities in private markets.
