Nasdaq Private Market: Funding, Investors & Team (Aug 2026)

Nasdaq Private Market (NPM) provides a secondary market trading venue and tech platform for private companies/issuers, employees and other shareholders, banks, broker-dealers, as well as prospective investors of private company stock. Since inception, NPM has facilitated more than $44 billion in transactional volume and has executed more than 600 company-sponsored programs on behalf of private companies. More than 160,000 market participants have unlocked liquidity through an NPM program. NPM offers private companies and investors various liquidity solutions including tender offers, auctions, company marketplaces, and block trades. In 2021, NPM spun-off of Nasdaq to become its own, independent company receiving strategic investments from Nasdaq, Silicon Valley Bank (SVB), Citi, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, and later Allen and Co. Today’s reality is that companies are choosing to stay private for longer. This is the new market standard. With leadership and expertise in the market, NPM’s vision is to further expand the liquidity landscape.

About FundedIQ's Nasdaq Private Market Funding Data

FundedIQ tracks announced funding rounds and refreshes this profile every week. Round dates, stages and amounts are normalised to a single format, converted to US dollars, and de-duplicated: two records of the same round announced days apart are merged, and two genuinely different rounds are kept apart on the amounts they disclose. Amounts shown are the disclosed figures only — a round announced without a number is listed and excluded from the total rather than estimated.

Employee counts are reported bands, not exact headcounts. Founder and executive names carry the job title on record. Anything we do not hold for Nasdaq Private Market is left off this page rather than filled in.
