In a recent episode of Inside Startup Investing, Christopher Lustrino had the pleasure of speaking with Ronny Shmoel, CEO of Circuit City. Since launching their Circuit City for Business division in 2020, B2B sales have outpaced their direct-to-consumer efforts by 10%. Ronny explained how Circuit City is disrupting the traditional B2B market, especially for small businesses that shop like regular consumers but may lack extensive procurement departments. With a focus on innovation and addressing underserved needs, Circuit City is transforming an antiquated industry model.

About us
The JOBS Act (passed in 2012 and enacted in 2016) allows all Americans to invest in startups, which was previously limited to only the wealthy elite. Now, thousands of everyday investors put millions of dollars into startups every year. Despite that, there is still no research and analytics solutions similar to the public market (e.g., MorningsStar, Bloomberg, SeekingAlpha, The Motley Fool) to empower individuals to make informed investment decisions. KingsCrowd aims to empower everyone to invest in startups confidently through a suite of products including research, ratings, data analytics, founder interviews, and financial products. KingsCrowd collects hundreds of data points on every startup that raises money online, and our patent-pending algorithm provides a quantitative assessment of the startup's investment potential. We believe in the power of data-driven investment decisions.
