From his London office, Marco Beniamino Brioschi, Founder and CEO of JUSTMEBEN LTD, shares his insights on the evolving world of crowdfunding and private equity.
Marco Beniamino Brioschi Insights About Crowdfunding and Private Equity Strategies
Interviewer: Good day, Mr. Brioschi, and thank you for joining us. Could you start by introducing JUSTMEBEN LTD and its role in today’s crowdfunding and private equity landscape?
Marco Beniamino Brioschi: Thank you for having me. At JUSTMEBEN LTD, we specialize in supporting companies through every phase of fundraising, from early-stage capital acquisition to strategic scale-up financing.
Our focus is primarily on dynamic startups and innovative ventures across Europe and the United States. By leveraging crowdfunding and private equity channels, we help accelerate innovation, drive sustainable growth, and connect businesses with a global network of investors.
Interviewer: What major trends are you currently observing in crowdfunding and private equity, particularly in Europe and the U.S.?
Marco Beniamino Brioschi: Several trends stand out. There’s a significant rise in investment towards sectors like artificial intelligence, clean technologies, and sustainable infrastructure. Crowdfunding has evolved into a sophisticated tool not only for startups but also for more mature companies looking to engage communities directly.
In private equity, ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) criteria have become pivotal. Investors today seek not just returns but also real, measurable impact, particularly in Europe where regulatory frameworks are advancing quickly.
Interviewer: How would you compare the crowdfunding ecosystems between Europe and the United States today?
Marco Beniamino Brioschi: Both ecosystems are flourishing, but they have different dynamics. The U.S. benefits from a more established culture of venture capital and a broader adoption of crowdfunding platforms like Regulation CF and Regulation A+.
Europe, on the other hand, is catching up fast, especially with the introduction of the EU Crowdfunding Regulation, which harmonizes standards across member states. At JUSTMEBEN LTD, we guide companies in navigating these different regulatory environments to maximize their fundraising potential internationally.
Interviewer: Looking to the future, what challenges and opportunities do you foresee in these sectors?
Marco Beniamino Brioschi: Transparency, regulatory compliance, and investor education will continue to be key challenges. As digital platforms proliferate, ensuring quality control and proper due diligence becomes more crucial than ever.
However, this digitalization also presents extraordinary opportunities: tokenization of assets, blockchain-based crowdfunding, and AI-driven investor matchmaking are reshaping the capital markets. At JUSTMEBEN LTD, we are actively exploring these technologies to stay ahead and deliver even greater value to our clients.
Interviewer: What advice would you give to startups or entrepreneurs considering crowdfunding or seeking private equity investment today?
Marco Beniamino Brioschi: Preparation is everything. Founders must build not just a strong business model, but also a compelling narrative that resonates with both traditional investors and a digital audience. It’s crucial to be clear about the funding objectives, the use of proceeds, and to demonstrate transparency from the outset.
Partnering with experienced advisors, like our team at JUSTMEBEN LTD, can make a significant difference in structuring the right strategy, accessing the right networks, and positioning the company for long-term success.
Interviewer: Thank you, Mr. Brioschi, for sharing your expertise with us today.
Marco Beniamino Brioschi: It was a pleasure. Thank you.
