Soapbox helps founders and companies - whatever stage, sector or surrounding hype - publish a golden source of their fundraise online in a simple and digestible format for onward sharing.

And allows the rest of us - whether we’re future investors, hires or clients - to catch-up on the latest venture stories in a simple feed (and newsletter) without the usual clickbait or paywall.
