Raising capital in today’s market is uniquely challenging. Investors are more selective, conducting deeper diligence, and demanding clear proof of market opportunity, execution capability, and a credible path to liquidity. For founders, management teams, and fund managers, the question is not just “How do I meet investors?” but “How do I get in front of the right investors—those who truly understand my sector and have the capacity to fund meaningful growth?”
Opus8’s Private Investor Platform (PIP) was designed to solve this problem. Since 2009, we have been helping companies and funds raise capital by providing direct, curated access to our global investor community and supporting every step of the fundraising journey.
Our platform offers unparalleled access to over 4,500 accredited investors, including high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth individuals, angels, family offices, and small institutional funds. Beyond this core, we regularly engage with an additional 45,000+ high-net-worth investors and 1,000+ Centers of Influence (COIs)—venture partners, RIAs, advisors, and family office executives—who act as trusted conduits to capital.
The program is designed to simplify, accelerate, and de-risk your fundraising through:
