What is Teamshares?
Teamshares is on a mission to create $10 billion of new wealth for lower-income Americans through employee ownership. We’re a mission-driven startup that buys small businesses from retiring owners and transitions them into enduring, employee-owned businesses through our software, education, and community products. Before Teamshares, there wasn't an easy way for small businesses—which make up 98% of firms in the US economy—to become employee-owned.
We are a 90+ person, remote-first, Series C funded company backed by QED Investors, Spark Capital, Khosla Ventures, Collaborative Fund, Inspired Capital, Slow Ventures and Union Square Ventures, among others.
