MarketX is a one-stop shop for over 300 family offices, funds, and high net worth individuals to access high growth private tech investment opportunities. MarketX helps you capitalize on the rise of the "Private IPO" Instead of going public, many late-stage tech companies are considering the "private IPO". This is when startups raise rounds of over $300M from investors, providing them with enough capital to delay an IPO by years. More value is captured in the private markets More and more value is being captured in the private markets for tech startups. As companies decide to stay private longer, this will be an ongoing trend. In 2020 alone, the private technology sector has used this to raise over $220 billion.

We provide capital and strategic partnership to companies and funds led by faith-driven teams that have the potential for outsized returns and impact. We currently have five main practice areas.

Second, we invest directly in promising, early-stage technology companies across Seed and Series A stages. Third, we invest in publicly-traded companies.
