 The Juneau conceptThe revolutionary Juneau concept enables entrepreneurs to grow their startups more peacefully, providing them and their angel investors with the option to gain immediate access to cash in return for a small fraction of the shares in their own venture. The exchange of startup shares for cash only or for Juneau tradable stock and cash distributes the risk and increases liquidity opportunities.
