As the equity architects behind companies of all sizes, we’ve witnessed the power of thoughtful design and employee ownership.
We’ve been part of, advised on and created equity schemes that attract, retain and transform employees’ connection to the company and their work. More specifically when equity schemes are designed and communicated well, we’ve observed an increase in productivity and a higher trust in leadership. In general, equity schemes create a greater appreciation in employees for their position.

At the same time, the world of employee equity is becoming increasingly more complex and harder to navigate. So, in a bid to make it simple and accessible for all teams, we founded EquityPeople!

“Whilst working at a leading captable management tool we noticed that multiple customers had struggles that stretched outside the remits of a software company. So, we created a consultancy to help companies get equity right.”
