The Future of Private Markets
Carta is a global fintech platform providing digital infrastructure for capitalization management, equity ownership, and corporate governance across private companies and investment funds. The platform automates core processes such as cap table management, equity issuance, option plans, and investor reporting for startups, venture funds, and institutional participants. Carta has become a de facto standard for private markets, serving companies at various growth stages as well as venture and institutional investors. The platform reduces operational risk, improves ownership transparency, and streamlines interactions between companies, investors, and regulatory frameworks.
Why We Invested
Almak Capital invested in Carta, viewing private market infrastructure as a critical component of the modern investment ecosystem. The investment thesis was driven by Carta’s strong adoption across venture-backed and growth-stage companies, network effects, and deep integration into the operational workflows of funds and startups. Additional drivers included a recurring revenue model, high switching costs, and the potential to expand into adjacent segments of private markets. Almak Capital views Carta as a long-term infrastructure provider benefiting from the continued growth and complexity of private capital markets.
