Jake Hoffberg of Equifund | How a Jazz Musician Got into Publishing; Private Equity Crowdfunding in the Digital Age

Today's Unlimited Partner is Jake Hoffberg the Publisher for Equifund, which helps "retail investors diversify their portfolio, increase passive income, and grow their net worth using private market investments. Companies can use Equifund’s technology to raise money under multiple US exemptions: Reg D, Reg A+, Reg CF and Reg S."

After learning that The Jobs Act of 2012 would ease methods of capital raising, Jake dove in headfirst and learned the ins and outs of the new laws. He saw first hand how to navigate, what to do, what not to do. Eventually he joined Equifund where he has become the Publisher, helping to provide private funding rounds for investors into vehicles they also take part in. This better aligns the interests of all parties involved. Equifund also helps prepare companies to go public, helping them get used to the new reporting they will be required to submit.

Topics include:

  • Attending Indiana University as a jazz musician and figuring out he wanted a different experience
  • Learning about promotions and events while at college
  • Getting into publishing and selling in the world of children's books
  • Investing in his self by buying copyrighting courses
  • Getting hired at Agora
  • Equifund (started by Jordan Gillissie) and how crowdfunding became legal due to The Jobs Act of 2012
  • Lowe v. SEC, 472 U.S. 181 (1985) and here's the link for the SCOTUS audio which I love to listen to sometimes 
  • Trying to protect investors by vetting incoming deals, avoiding snake oil salesmen
  • Helping companies go public the right way
  • Company curation in a crowdfunding world, having skin in the game

Jake's song is Yoko Kanno (Cowboy Bebop) - Got To Knock a Little Harder
