Small-Cap Institute provides leaders with a new toolset — a comprehensive knowledge library and interactive forums — to help navigate uniquely small-cap challenges.

KNOWLEDGE LIBRARY

Renowned investors and myriad experts provide first-of-its-kind guidance to navigating capital markets.

INTERACTIVE FORUMS

The only place where small-cap executives can convene to learn… from each other.

I’m not sure what was more impressive about the first piece of content I read from Small-Cap Institute – that it was the most relevant, insightful capital markets article I’ve ever read, or that I read the entire piece on my phone while stuck on a Jetway boarding a packed flight.

Peter Holt CEO, Joint Corp (NASDAQ: JYNT)

Nothing arguably strikes more fear into small-cap investors than bad financings, because it’s often unfortunately not a matter of “if” but “when,” even with otherwise healthy companies. But with Small-Cap Institute, CEOs will be able to learn directly from institutional investors who do these financings and from other CEOs who know what’s worked and what hasn’t. It’s potentially game-changing for small-cap companies, and the buy-side as well.

John LaGourgue Director, Grande West Transportation (TSX-V: BUS)

Small-cap CEOs are constantly barraged with biased, makeshift advice from short-term focused investors and inexperienced service providers who don't have the best interests of the company in mind. Small-Cap Institute captures and condenses the collective knowledge and expertise of some of the brightest investors, thought leaders, and visionaries in the business. I’m going to recommend this to every portfolio company and would be surprised if many investors did not do the same after seeing the depth and breadth of the content.
