Each week, Superpowers for Good shares a list of new impact-related offerings added to FINRA-Registered crowdfunding portals and by broker-dealers. We’ll share four separate lists:
Impact offerings as determined by KingsCrowd reviews.
Offerings with minority founders.
Deals with women founders.
Those with LGBTQ founders.
Sometimes, it takes weeks for our source to determine that a company has a social impact, a woman, minority or LGBTQ founder. When we discover an offering qualifies for our list, even if it is no longer new, we will include it. See the lists below.
SuperCrowd Social Impact Offerings of the Week:
Apis Cor, with a valuation of $201 million, is raising funds on StartEngine. It is a robotics technology design and manufacturing company that uses the technology to 3D-print full-scale houses. Apis Cor aims to provide structural 3D printing robotics to developers and homebuilders to reduce the cost of building. The company began its journey with a tiny home in snowy tundra and grew to make the world’s largest 3D-printed office in a desert metropolis, a 3D commercial structure in Texas, and win NASA’s 3D-printed Habitat Challenge. Nikita Cheniuntai and Anna Cheniuntai founded Apis Cor in December 2019. The current crowdfunding campaign has a minimum target of $14,999.88 and a maximum target of $3.6 million. The campaign proceeds will be used for company employment, materials to build 3D printers, CAPEX and trucks, operations, and marketing. (Courtesy of KingsCrowd.)
