We invest in a non-obvious future across deep tech, fintech, and web3.
Playbook
R/Capital has a playbook driven by a multifaceted value proposition
Conviction in the non-obvious
Our DNA is built around being early. Republic1 pioneered securities crowdfunding before there was an established market. We have a track record of investing with conviction in disruptive trends before they become obvious.

Unlocking decentralization
Because of our expertise in crypto assets and supporting infrastructure, we have the ability to invest in a company’s equity and in-parallel advise on when it’s appropriate economically to structure token sales and benefit from decentralization.
Access to 2.5 million retail investors
Access to Republic’s retail platform of 2.5 million users provides portfolio companies the possibility of one of the most innovative and effective marketing strategies. Having retail investors with a financial interest opens companies up to new customers, network effects, and importantly a community of evangelists who become the company’s most powerful spokespeople.
Founder-friendly model
Even when we invest in significant size, board seats are not a requirement. We know when we can provide value and when a founder should have more autonomy in decision making.
Portfolio
The following portfolio companies constitute “value add” strategic investments placed by Republic Capital Adviser LLC. In each case, Republic Capital or its affiliates holds a board seat, has introduced a keystone clients or investors or has provided material support outside of its investment of capital to the applicable portfolio company.
