TradeUp (
tradeupfund.com) is a new equity crowd funding platform for globalizing companies that was founded by
Kati Suominen who has deep expertise in international trade, economics and finance. Companies can raise $100,000 to $20 million in debt or equity through TradeUp. It enables globalizing companies to connect and transact with a range of accredited investors (angels, superangels, VCs, PE funds, family offices, strategic investors, lenders, etc.).
I interview Kati below on why she started TradeUp, how companies can get on board and whether size matters for global scale.
