    Participated · Equity · Feb 2025

    Proxymity offers a real-time, end-to-end digital platform that connects issuers, intermediaries, and investors to facilitate transparent proxy voting and shareholder disclosure. Its technology eliminates manual, paper-based processes and reduces operational complexity, giving market participants quicker access to meeting agendas and voting deadlines. The company partners with global custodians, transfer agents, and market-infrastructure operators to deliver its services across multiple jurisdictions. Building on momentum from its Series C funding round completed last year, Proxymity is focused on expanding internationally and deepening integrations with post-trade infrastructure providers. The firm’s platform is now being incorporated into Euroclear’s corporate-actions and governance products, underscoring its growing industry adoption. While specific revenue or user figures were not disclosed, the new strategic alliance highlights confidence in the company’s technology and its role in modernizing shareholder communications at scale.
