Nasdaq Private Market

Originally founded as a joint venture, Nasdaq Private Market was spun out from Nasdaq, Inc. in 2021 to operate as an independent company. It provides a sophisticated, institution-grade platform for private companies, their employees, and investors to manage equity and facilitate transactions in private company shares. The company's mission is to increase transparency and efficiency in the private markets by offering solutions for tender offers, auctions, block trades, and ongoing liquidity programs, thereby helping private companies attract and retain talent and providing early investors with pathways to liquidity before an IPO.
