Companisto, a German equity-based crowdfunding platform, has so far raised €4.5 million for the 25 startups it’s chosen to take on. Now it’s expanding with an English-language version that will allow submissions from startups anywhere in Europe, and investments from anyone around the world. The expansion comes little over 3 months after Seedrs, a British rival, became the first equity-based crowdfunding platform to expand across Europe.
