About

Capdesk is an equity management platform helping companies manage cap tables, shareholder registers, and employee shares. It accelerates its customer’s company growth by eliminating admin time to focus on core business tasks. Capdesk streamlines the equity management by automatically updating cap tables, statutory registers, and various modelings. Digital, end-to-end share issuance transfers, splits, consolidations, and cancellations can be performed seamlessly on the platform. With the equity information stored on the platform, clients can align stakeholders by giving them easy access to ownership information, share certificates, option vesting schedules, investment amounts, and latest values.

The London, England-headquartered company was established in 2015.

The London-based company has raised an additional £5 million ($6.9 million) from Fidelity International Strategic Ventures and MiddleGame Ventures.

The top-up funding follows an initial raise of £3 million ($4.2 million) in 2020, led by Fuel Ventures, and brings the Series A total to £8 million ($11.1 million).

Capdesk, which enables privately owned companies to manage their equity digitally via a single platform, has raised £11.7 million ($16 million) since being founded in 2015.

“With this funding we can build our vision for Europe’s startup ecosystem and compete with the US,” Christian Gabriel, Capdesk founder and CEO, told Insider. “COVID-19 has accelerated a need for businesses to distribute equity digitally and helps us to make a difference and push the frontier.”

Existing clients include e-scooter startup Voi, Nutmeg, and Gousto.

The startup will use the funding to continue investing in its products. The business has begun to operate more actively in the secondary share sale market and in April last year it launched a partnership with Seedrs to help investors access to Europe’s secondaries market.

“Capdesk has positioned itself as a leader in digital equity management,” Alokik Advani, managing partner at Fidelity International Strategic Ventures, said. “We’ve been watching the company’s growth closely and have been impressed with its digital capabilities for cap table and employee stock option plan management.”
