LTSE partners with companies across their lifecycle to help them grow and scale from formation through IPO. The Long-Term Stock Exchange (LTSE) is an SEC-regulated national securities exchange designed to align great companies and long-term investors with the shared goal of value creation. They have assembled a world-class team of experts and advisors with deep expertise in finance, regulation, law, and technology.

At every stage, from private investment into the public markets, strategically managing equity and a company's cap table has an outsized impact on long-term success. So in addition to the exchange, LTSE also built LTSE Equity, a full-lifecycle cap table management solution for planning, managing, and collaborating on startup equity.
