This Monday brings three key updates we’re excited to share.
Portfolio company updates Keeping you informed is our priority. So far,?65% of startups?financed via SeedBlink have shared their quarterly reports. You can find these in your portfolio under Insights & KPIs, Documents, or Founder’s Updates.
To ensure transparency, we’ve stepped up our outreach to all companies, using email, direct outreach, and SeedBlink-founder calls—sometimes?up to 9 times. We’ve also encouraged regular calls between founders and investors for open, consistent communication.
For startups that are still adapting to sharing detailed updates, please know we’re working hard to improve information flow. Your need for clear, timely insights matters to us.
