All Things Equity

As a startup founder, I am happy to witness SeedBlink’s dedication to expand their support for early-stage companies beyond funding, towards a healthy equity management via Nimity.

A solution to help better navigate relations with stakeholders, employees and future investors is needed in Europe. Less admin work and bringing transparency to cap table are immediate benefits I was able to test.

ESOP is very important for any company, big and small, to ensure all employees are engaged and share in the company's success. In a world where remote working is skyrocketing and employees have a wealth of options, what differentiates each opportunity is the product, vision, and team.

To maintain a loyal and motivated team, especially in this competitive landscape, one of the best ways is to include everyone in the ESOP journey. This approach, backed by companies like SeedBlink and initiated with one of their solutions, Nimity, is essential for building a dedicated and invested workforce in the modern business environment.

I commend SeedBlink for their initiative in spearheading the development of Nimity, and their dedication to empowering equity access and management for founders, investors, and employees. I am looking forward to witness the impact it will have on the CEE ecosystem.

ESOP is important for the startup ecosystem, as it reinforces the notion that success is a team sport. Good companies are not ‘employers’ – they are a ‘mission’ for team members.

So if/when success comes, the benefits should be shared with the team. Just like at Telerik, where our ESOP helped many of us start new businesses, SeedBlink's approach with Nimity could spark a similar trend. It’s about turning a single success into a network of new ventures, expanding the startup ecosystem in exciting ways.
