700 - 980 Howe Street, Vancouver, BC, V6Z 0C8, CANADA

Overview

Hiive operates a secondary trading platform where employees, founders and investors can buy and sell shares of private startups. The company is positioning itself to expand secondary-market activity amid a drop in IPOs and growing demand for liquidity in private markets. Reported trading concentration on Hiive was high in Q4 2025: the top 20 most active startups accounted for 86.4% of trading value, and the top five (including SpaceX, OpenAI and Anthropic) made up 55.6% of value. Hiive intends to use the recently raised $2 million to grow its secondary-market operations.
