SeedBlink Blog

At SeedBlink, we’ve long believed that access, flexibility, and transparency shouldn’t be reserved for institutions. Also, early liquidity is no longer optional — it’s expected. That’s why we built a secondary market to empower individual investors — and today, we’re excited to announce a major milestone: more than €5 million in secondary transactions across our two secondary investing channels.

As you may already know, we offer two ways to access secondaries:

• The SeedBlink Bulletin Board – for buying and selling shares in SeedBlink-funded startups.

• Secondaries in mature private companies – for investing in high-growth, later-stage firms through trusted partner allocations.

This article explores what’s new, and how you can start using them today for flexible portfolio management.

First, the numbers on the SeedBlink secondary market at a glance:

• €5M+ in total secondary market volume
• €2.15M+ via the Bulletin Board (€1.3M+ traded in 2024 alone)
• Bulletin Board generating returns of 2.5x to 3x for some investors since launch; some deals as large as €100,000; Multiple repeat investors. Now expanded to 80 live offers.

The Bulletin Board now featuring more offerings

The Bulletin Board allows you to sell or buy shares in companies funded on our crowdfunding platform. With this update, we’ve expanded it to include equity investments across multiple investment vehicles, unlocking access to a broader list of portfolio companies. That means you can now trade shares in 80 private tech companies — including some of Europe’s most promising startups.

For investors - what you can do now:

• Browse and buy shares in companies you missed during primary rounds
