SeedBlink announces leadership rotation as Andrei Dudoiu steps in as CEO, amid record-breaking Q3

Bucharest, October 29: SeedBlink, the all-in-one equity management and investment platform, announces a strategic leadership transition as Andrei Dudoiu, currently President of the Board, takes over the role of CEO, succeeding Carmen Sebe. This planned leadership rotation reflects the founders’ long-term commitment to ensuring stability while driving growth. With Andrei’s extensive financial expertise, commercial acumen, and entrepreneurial vision, SeedBlink is poised to accelerate its scale-up journey across Europe.

With over two decades of experience, including his previous role as Deputy CEO at Banca Transilvania – now the biggest bank in South-Eastern Europe – Andrei Dudoiu has a proven track record of leading growth and managing pivotal transformation. His appointment as CEO underscores SeedBlink’s readiness to further expand and lead Europe’s capital-raising and equity management landscape for startups, following a record-breaking third quarter in 2024.

"Stepping into the role of CEO at such a transformative time is a great honor," says Andrei Dudoiu. "Q3 has been our strongest quarter yet marked by exceptional revenue growth and a vibrant team spirit. As we gear up for the next phase of SeedBlink’s evolution, our focus is clear — driving revenue acceleration and expanding our product suite to support startups at every growth stage. Beyond financing, we have a robust ecosystem that includes equity management, syndication, and secondary market solutions. Just as AngelList pioneered syndicate investments and community-driven funding in the U.S., we believe SeedBlink is innovating across Europe by offering a comprehensive infrastructure that adapts to the needs of founders and investors alike."

Record-setting Q3 propels SeedBlink's growth

During the third quarter of 2024, its team delivered outstanding performance across its suite of innovative products:

• SeedBlink Ventures, the equity crowdfunding and investment platform saw major funding milestones, with €1 million raised for. lumen in a single day and €1.6 million raised for Pago, breaking platform records.
• Raise Hub, latest major release linking SeedBlink’s Equity and Syndicates, now empowers founders to manage fundraising efforts within their networks, ensuring compliance and easier post-investment governance. In under a month, 26 companies from Romania, the Netherlands, Bulgaria, Greece, Austria, UK, Hungary, and Ireland have started preparing their private rounds.
• SeedBlink Secondaries experienced growing demand, offering investors exclusive access to pre-IPO opportunities from companies such as Klarna and Einride.
• SeedBlink Equity remains the platform's backbone, providing seamless management of equity, fundraising, employee incentives (ESOPs), and stakeholder governance. Notable clients such as Agricover and Bright Spaces are leveraging SeedBlink Equity to drive strategic growth.

Under Carmen Sebe’s leadership, SeedBlink evolved from an equity crowdfunding platform into a comprehensive all-in-one modular equity management and investment platform, serving both private companies and their investors. As she transitions to the role of President of the Board, Carmen will continue to focus on strategic stakeholder management, overseeing risk management, and spearheading the scaling of the equity management product.

A unified vision for future growth

This leadership rotation marks a natural progression of the founders’ vision, designed to evolve leadership in line with the company’s growth phases. Andrei and Carmen, along with the co-founders Radu Georgescu and Ionut Patrahau and broader team, will continue to lead SeedBlink with a unified strategy focused on scaling its infrastructure across equity management, syndication, and secondary markets. The company's comprehensive product suite strengthens its position as a vital partner for European tech startups and their investors at every growth stage.
