At broccoli, we provide guidance to companies regarding their valuations, but ultimately it is up to the company to set the price of their investment offer. Valuing a company is a subjective process, and there are many ways to approach it.

For companies raising funds on our platform, we recommend they consider the valuations of similar companies in their market, as well as factors such as their stage, risk, and growth potential. It is also important for companies to seek advice from an advisor to substantiate their valuation.

If you are considering investing in a company on our platform, you can reach out to the founders directly using the contact information provided on the campaign page to ask any questions you may have about their valuation.

Normally, if you want to add third-party shareholders to your company, you need to involve a notary, which can be expensive. At broccoli, we issue depositary receipts for shares through a STAK or cooperative, which eliminates the need for notarization. Once the depositary receipts are issued, the shares can be transferred privately and we can facilitate hundreds or even thousands of transactions digitally through our platform.

We keep a fully digital summary of your company's register of shareholders, which is automatically updated in real-time. If any of your shareholders need to make changes, they can communicate these updates directly, and the register of shareholders on Broccoli will be updated automatically. This streamlines the process and eliminates the need for costly notarization.

As an entrepreneur, you have the freedom to decide how you want to arrange your voting rights on broccoli. You can choose to distribute them proportionally or assign them to specific classes, depending on your company's legal structure.

If you opt for a cooperative, voting rights are distributed democratically among all shareholders. However, if you choose a STAK (Foundation for the Administration), current shareholders retain all voting rights.

Making decisions about voting rights can be complex, but our team professionals is here to help guide you through the process. We will work with you to ensure that your voting rights are structured in a way that aligns with your company's needs and objectives.
