Are you finding your managed or passive fund portfolio repetitive or stagnating? The markets may not offer much in terms of exciting small cap companies that are primed for high growth. Companies like this seem to be in abundance south of the border. For investors looking to diversify their portfolio, growth startups, especially deep tech companies that offer innovative solutions to everyday problems like VoltSafe Inc. are just what they are looking for.
So why do VCs invest in growth stage startups? Nothing beats the excitement of watching a small company achieve its milestones and significantly grow their valuation. Venture capitalists and veteran investors know that growth start-ups will provide the advantages that established companies can’t provide such as high growth, a higher percentage of equity, lower price per share, unique businesses and the satisfaction of backing a company that will make a difference in the world through innovation. Previously, it was difficult for retail investors to access these types of investment opportunities. However, Canadian-based investment platform Frontfundr has made it easy for anyone, including retail investors to be a part of supporting exciting and innovative ideas and reap the rewards that go along with it.
Let’s take a look at why venture capitalists invest in growth stage startups and why retail investors might want to consider diversifying their portfolio by investing in a growth start-up like VoltSafe Inc.
VoltSafe is a growth stage startup, meaning that the company has already established a steady base of customers with active purchase orders and early investors can benefit from significant upside when the company successfully grows. Investing early gives small investors the chance to own shares at a lower valuation, potentially leading to high returns as the company’s revenues and profits grow and its value increases. Right now, VoltSafe Inc. is offering investors shares at $7.50 per share and you can invest with a minimum of $750 investment. Investors’ contributions will go towards the growth and expansion of the company such as fulfilling active purchase orders for their marine solution. With high demand from the marine industry for VoltSafe’s solution, the technology is already revealing product market fit and high margin capabilities for its hardware and software solutions.
Early-stage startups typically offer a higher percentage of equity or ownership for smaller investments. As the company grows, that small ownership stake could become far more valuable. A $750 investment in the early-stage of a company like VoltSafe Inc. could be worth thousands if the company scales successfully or is acquired*. The company’s growth potential is linked to the ability to scale and adapt their technology to any sector. These sectors and industries are looking to address shortages in electrification infrastructure and comply with safety regulations and mandates required by governing bodies as the globe transitions to an electrified future and customers look to save money from usage.
Investing in VoltSafe provides portfolio diversification benefits to retail investors. Deep tech startups like VoltSafe are less correlated with publicly traded stocks and global financial indexes. Furthermore, VoltSafe provides the benefit of being the only company in the world able to do what it does.
Aside from the exciting innovation and lack of competition, many small investors enjoy the personal connection and satisfaction that comes with supporting a young company. You’re not just investing money; you’re also supporting an idea or mission you believe in. This sense of involvement can be particularly rewarding if you’re passionate about the company’s product, service, or industry. Whether it is supporting the growth of a local Canadian company like Voltsafe Inc., wanting to see increased electrical safety and accessible technology, reducing your carbon footprint through energy management or saving money on your energy bill as we enter into an age where everything is electrified.
With platforms like FrontFundr, retail investors can now support innovative companies or disruptive business models with their investments and help bring groundbreaking products and services to market, whether it’s in tech, sustainability, healthcare, or another field. Opportunities to invest in startups were previously open to venture capitalists and institutional investors, but now retail investors can also support innovation and build an exciting and financially rewarding portfolio.
It’s clear that there are many exciting benefits to investing in a growth stage startup like VoltSafe. Visit our Frontfundr page to invest and add VoltSafe to your portfolio. You can also connect with invest@voltsafe.com to learn more.
