Purpose of financing for ValuesCo
With the latest financing from the seed funding, ValueaCo seeks to further accelerate its growth. Besides, the company has plans to expand its operations and its business reach.
What the company’s officials have to say
Co-founder and CEO Andrew Berkowitz said, “I started ValuesCo to empower young people to feel more agency and understand that grassroots solutions to the world’s biggest challenges are possible.”
In addition, Justin Markell, ValuesCo’s Chief Strategy Officer, said, “Corporations have largely not built inroads to incentivize their communities to contribute to ESG performance. It’s time for a shift where consumers help fulfil on shared purpose with their actions and produce exponential change.”
What the strategic advisor has to add
Adrian Grenier said, “I am honoured to join ValuesCo as an advisor – building blockchain tools that are easy to use and align monetary value exchange with real human value, are the foundation to an inclusive Web3. The team’s mission is fully aligned with my personal values.”
