Key Highlights

[00:01 – 13:59] Sales are About Generosity, not Selfishness

  • How alternative investment firms are making investments in private securities easier

[14:00 – 30:17] Access to Private Security Investments is Easier Than Ever

  • As private investing becomes more accessible and popular, investors need to prioritize diligence and make informed decisions.
  • A private security offering is a type of investment that is typically more difficult to access than public securities. This is because the flow of information between the various parties involved is crucial for success.
  • Trellis Platform provides exclusive access to alternative investment opportunities, premium content, and education, while also providing an affinity peer-to-peer network of industry professionals.
  • Trellis Platforms functions as a marketplace facilitator while protecting its intermediaries.

  • How Trellis Platform facilitates transactions between investors and companies, as well as provides support for one-on-one interactions.
  • It is in Silicon Valley’s best interest to prioritize larger companies with more spending power instead of smaller VCs, this is why Trellis aims to make more opportunities accessible to more people.
