Celebrating 8 years of Republic! 🥳 This July marks 8 years since @joinrepublic's launch. In a letter to the Republic community, our CEO @KendrickEsq reflected on our journey and the future of private markets. 🚀 Read the full letter here 👇 republic.com/blog/republic-…

You’ve asked, “Wen Launch?” and to that, we say...👇 Catch us live at Launch Complex 16 in Cape Canaveral, FL on March 8, 2023 to watch the world’s first 3D printed rocket fly. 🚀 #GLHF bit.ly/3xIWv7C

My incredible teammate and friend @zehranaqvi_ talking about her social deal flow engine, accreditation rules, and @joinrepublic’s commitment to curation. Check it out!

Just released my interview with @zehranaqvi_! We discussed her role at @joinrepublic, her founder-first mentality, the antiquated accreditation laws, the creation of the Z List, what it means to be a founder, and problems in the VC world. Check out what she had to say:👇🏼



Excited to join this panel hosted by @joinrepublic’s friend & partner @cartainc!

New data suggests a slowdown in venture capital. Where do we go from here? On May 12, @AmberAllen_AA, @mattjmelbourne and @PeterJ_Walker will explore potential reasons for the change, its impact, and what to consider for your next fundraise. carta.com/events/round-s…

Why every company should enable their community to become investors and owners (cc: @joinrepublic). Ownership matters.

"When users are granted with a certain company’s stock, their weekly spending at those brands increases by 100%." Ownership drives brand familiarity & loyalty: www8.gsb.columbia.edu/newsroom/newsn…



Doing a shoot with some of our portfolio founders today. Amazing stories to tell and wins to share. Grateful that @joinrepublic got to play a small part in the growth of each one.

Everyone is becoming an investor. And so investors are declining in power. You have countless options to raise money today, from full crypto to traditional VC to republic.co to HNWs. The point of tech is to self disrupt, and Sand Hill has less power than ever.

If you own any tokens in any network you are a VC. Congratulations on your promotion.



Fintech is amazing. Just signed up for an amazing co—@biltforyou It’s a digital CC to earn CC points on rent payments. My NYC landlord only takes paper checks, so BILT sends a check each month. $0 annual fee (If your landlord takes CC but charges fees, check works here also.)

I will only watch next season of succession if caroline collingwood is a main character!!


Well, this never happened but @joinrepublic x @Seedrs just did! Excited to announce our acquisition of Seedrs and expansion into Europe. This is one huge step toward making Republic’s global vision a reality. 🇬🇧🇪🇺

Huge congrats to @Seedrs & @Crowdcube, @joinrepublic’s partners across the pond. A win for the UK and the global startup ecosystem.
