Hiive is the Marketplace for Private Stock.
The matching system for buyers and sellers of shares in private, VC-backed companies.
Find your counterparty, negotiate direct, and make a deal*.
* Investing in private unregistered securities is highly speculative and entails a high degree of risk. These securities are inherently illiquid and there is no guarantee that a market will be available for them. Accordingly, investment in these securities is appropriate only for those investors who can tolerate a high degree of risk, can withstand a total loss of investment, and do not require liquidity of their investment.
Buy and sell shares of private companies and unicorns*
Accredited investors and qualified funds can place an order to buy or sell shares of late stage venture backed companies directly from another party, and without the involvement of a live broker. Hiive automates and centralizes proven processes from the traditional secondary market, without reinventing them.
