Amplify Your Business In The Loop of Financial Markets, with Josh Furstoss

For Episode 248 of Amplify Your Business, we’re joined by Josh Furstoss, the CEO and co-founder of Incued. Induced aims to provide real-time financial data on private market assets to venture capital firms, private equity firms, investment banks, lenders, etc. This allows them to understand the performance, revenue, spending, and more of the portfolio companies they're involved with. Currently, traditional methods like Excel documents and PDFs lead to static, potentially fraudulent, and low-quality data, increasing investment and loan risk. The long-term goal is to create a Bloomberg terminal for the private markets, enhancing liquidity and driving market efficiency and innovation.
