Republic cofounder Kendrick Nguyen bullish on crowdfunding
Take it from a man who knows who gets funded in Silicon Valley – crowdfunding opens funding avenues for more entrepreneurs.
Prior to founding equity crowdfunding for startups platform Republic, Kendrick Nguyen and cofounder Paul Menchov both worked at AngelList, with Mr. Nguyen serving as general counsel and Mr. Menchov as head of fundraising infrastructure.
“Being in Silicon Valley, seeing the volume of startups apply, and the type that got funded over time, I came to strongly believe that where the venture capital ecosystem was, where you get funded from accredited investors, was only beneficial for a few entrepreneurs,” Mr. Nguyen said.
