Our take
getquin, formerly known as QUIN, offers a social network and portfolio tracking platform aimed at younger private investors. By allowing users to aggregate and manage their investments in one place, while also engaging with a community of peers and experts, the company is positioning itself as a central hub for modern retail investing.
Since launching in 2020, getquin has established a solid foundation, backed by experienced fintech founders and early support from investors like APX, Sino AG, and Runa Capital. This backing has helped the company scale its platform and refine its offering in an increasingly competitive market.
getquin's focus on Millennial and Gen Z investors remains a shrewd move, given the sustained rise in retail participation. Its commitment to user privacy, particularly its stance against selling data to third parties, also aligns well with the expectations of this demographic, supporting its longer-term growth potential.
