Simple clear professional team and really interesting sessions. We did get both investor leads and possible project leads - and learnt a lot. Will make sure I attend all 3 days next year

Wholesale Investor's Emergence 2022…

Wholesale Investor's Emergence 2022 conference offered excellent networking opportunities for start ups and scale ups looking for capital investment. There was an excellent mix of partners and potential investors at the event. I highly recommend this for anyone raising capital funding.

Good team and platform evolving fund raising to the new age !

The CRIISP platorm is a great step forward for young companies for their fund raising - esp not to be hostage anymore to a lot of shady so called "boutique investment bankers". Having said this - it was always a very personal experience since Steven managed the key thing an entrepreneur has to do: inspire and gather a hard working and motivated team around him. All the details have been managed also with attention (pitch decks, positioning, introductions, 30-sec videos, CRIISP Growth lab, Private networking etc!). A key benefit is to manage your own internal "Master Data Room" for communicating with both new or existing investors. The highlight was surely the recent in person Emergence Chapeau to a fellow entrepreneur and his team. Keep evolving this company - it is really needed. Cheers Tom, Founder&CEO neurocare Group

Great to participate in the Emergence Conference.

Awesome venue, well organized and informative, with continued support before, during and after the conference from the WI team.

The conference has delivered potential capital raising opportunities and potential commercial opportunities.

The CRISP data room platform is easy to use and an ideal platform to distribute business updates and manage potential investors and interested parties.

Wholesale Investor experience

Great to present at the Wholesale Investor Emergence conference. Wholesale Investor are very professional and sincere in assisting companies like ours in attracting capital. Their team has been very responsive to our requests for assistance , in various aspects of the capital raising process. Also their Criisp platform is easy to use and they update us immediately upon an investor enquiry.

Appreciate WI's efforts at the recent Emergence 2022 conference in Sydney as everything worked very well. In this COVID environment, its easy to forget the importance of face to face communications, particularly for fund raising. Thank you for facilitating this in the professional manner that you do.

Professional Guidance when Seeking Investors

Our 5 months with Wholesale Investor has been extremely valuable. Lets look at the detail:
CRIISP Platform & Deal Room - we're learning - we will generate value. Not just investors, but also potential partners and potential professional assistance companies.
WI Team - Support - They are tough task masters - if you are prepared to accept the coaching - quantum leap in Pitch Deck preparation/content. Video's useful.
CRIISP Growth Labs - great content - international tutoring - Run Saturday/Sunday very much worth the investment of time.
WI Private Networking and 3 days Networking during Emergence 2022 - meaningful discussions - follow up now under way -
As far as outcomes from Emergence 2022. MNDA opportunities identified - so potentially great value from Emergence 2022 and the preparation that preceded.
Commercial and Strategic discussions were positive, we know we have a way to go re early stage investors but made significant progress.
In terms of WI collateral and educative material - all valuable.
I see no reason not to complete our first 12 months with WI and continue during the progressive development and growth of our business

WI keeps on delivering value

As a company that has been involved with Wholesale Investor for some time they have enabled us to raise capital effectively, participate in events like Emergence 2022 and increase our credibility in the market. Jackie and the team make it a breeze to prepare and engage with investors.

Absolutely incredible experience at Emergence 2022.

It's rare to get a chance to speak to so many top tier investors, founders and innovators in 3 days.

Thank you to all of the Wholesale Investor team.

Looking forward to working with you on our raise moving forward.

Business owners should seek capital elsewhere

As a business owner I would never do this again as the money could be better spent elsewhere. The reasons I would not recommend business owners use this platform is below

1. Expensive packages, with providing only a platform for the business owners company and maybe sending out a email or two.
2. Significantly less Investors in attendance than what was promoted (maybe thousands registered yet only a few hundred in signed in)
3. The limited investors signed in are generally Pre IPO investors. Very few early stage investors
4. Technology used for the digital conference was woeful. People couldn't find what they want and you cant find the right people to talk to. So even if you found the right investor the chances of connecting are low and the chance of discussing the business are lower again.

Myself and several other business owners on the platform shared the experience above. Avoid paid upfront promotion platforms like this at all costs

Reply from Wholesale Investor

Dear valued reviewer,

Firstly, we appreciate your feedback and would like to reassure you that it was taken into account and acted upon. We acknowledge the issues you experienced at the time and have been consistently working to improve upon these points.

Our package pricing is designed to reflect the comprehensive range of services we offer. Aside from facilitating connections between businesses and investors, we have expanded our offerings to include educational webinars, mentorship opportunities, access to in-person investment events, and conferences. We've also significantly enhanced our email outreach program to include multiple newsletters, including our Deal Day and weekend editions, as well as more targeted online marketing campaigns.

We acknowledge your concerns regarding the number of investors in attendance at our events. However, we firmly believe that quality outweighs quantity. A few hundred investors can result in numerous valuable conversations and potential deals. That said, we've also been focusing on improving our brand story and enhancing our investor conference to boost attendance.

Since your review, we have been working diligently to broaden our network, particularly with angel investors and high net worth individuals who have a proven track record of supporting early-stage companies. Gaining the trust of these investors takes time, but we're pleased to report significant progress in this area.

We are grateful for your feedback regarding the conferencing software, which helped us make an important decision. We've moved away from outsourced software and have now developed our own in-house conferencing system, offering a more seamless and integrated experience for our users.

Our commitment is to provide an optimal platform for businesses and investors alike, and your feedback has been invaluable in helping us improve our service. We invite you to get back in touch with us and explore the upgrades we've implemented since your review. If you wish to discuss anything further, please do not hesitate to reach out to h.dupont@wholesaleinvestor.co.uk.

Thank you once again for taking the time to leave a review, and we hope to serve you better in the future.
