Lift Global Ventures Plc (AQSE:LFT), an enterprise company formed to identify investment and acquisition opportunities within the financial media and related technology industries, is pleased to announce that trading in its ordinary shares will commence on AQSE Growth Market (“AQSE”) at 8:00 a.m., today (Friday, 29 March 2022), under the ticker “LFT” and ISIN: GB00BNG59574.
The Company has been admitted to the Access Segment of AQSE following the successful completion of an oversubscribed fundraise of £1.73 million. Including funds raised prior to the IPO, Lift has raised £2.07 million to pursue its investment strategy and may invest in or acquire, inter alia, financial news websites and other forms of “new media”, investment research providers, marketing services businesses, content creators and financial technology platforms.
The Board of the Company comprises Paul Gazzard, Non-Executive Chairman, Zak Mir, Chief Executive Officer and Timothy Daniel, Executive Director.
The Board, and in particular the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, has significant experience and an extensive network of contacts in the financial media and related technology industries. The Directors aim to leverage these strengths to not only identify compelling acquisition or investment opportunities but also to advise and add value to investee companies on an ongoing basis. The Board believes it has the expertise to identify and fully exploit the synergistic opportunities available to the Company from investing across its target sectors.
Zak Mir, Chief Executive Officer, commented:
“In recent years, we’ve seen investor access improve drastically, with social and financial media and technology transforming how companies, markets, and investors interact. However, the financial media and technology markets remain fragmented, and more choice does not necessarily lead to better outcomes for investors.
We formed Lift to disrupt and improve the financial media and technology landscape, and to create an innovative media and technology group which is greater than the sum of its parts.”
