Since its announcement, The Conglomerate Capital (TCC) project has been garnering a lot of attention. Some people are calling it the next big thing in the crypto world, and there is certainly a lot of hype surrounding it.
Our group of crypto journalists decided to take a closer look at the project. Is it really worth investing in?
Environment
As the world becomes more digital, it is rapidly changing and becoming more decentralized. The rise of cryptocurrency, blockchain, DeFi, web 3.0 and Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs) are contributing to that. Now, the challenge is how to make use of all these new technologies and impact society positively.
From the finance and investing perspectives, with these new technologies, there is a unique chance to provide outstanding private market investment opportunities to retail investors throughout the world that, until now, only Venture Capital (VC) and Private Equity (PE) funds could access, which is where the true value is generated.
In total, the Crowdfunding and Launchpad (ICO) market will reach USD 21bn value in GMV terms next year, according with FNF Research. Although the crypto, as a way of funding, accounted for just ~20% of the capital raised, its average amount per deal is USD 4.9M while the crowdfunding is just USD 0.3M.

The project
The Conglomerate Capital (TCC), with its token (CONG), is the first truly web3, Ethereum blockchain-based investment and funding platform, governed by a Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO), from which disruptive startups as well as SME businesses will raise capital, where investors will be able to access Venture Capital and Private Equity outstanding opportunities through the CONG token.
The TCC and CONG ecosystem is the first and only to create governance and investing features to guide and protect investors through the implementation and use of new market features and to count with the expertise of world tier-1 VC and PE industries executives to shape the way people invest their capital.

Notes:
1) After a campaign is funded, TCC exchanges USDT & BUSD for fiat and send it to the Company. On opposite direction, whenever a Company generates cash and distributes to shareholders, TCC will receive cash proportionally to its stake.
2) Based on governance decision, funds distributed from the Companies to TCC may be exchanged to USDT & BUSD and distributed to holders proportionally.
3) TCC can implement a buyback program if there is cash available. Price per CONG and total amount, to be decided by governance.
4) Investors will be able to trade CONG when the token is listed in exchanges.
5) With the cash generated from the Companies, TCC may exchange it to tokens to be distributed to holders.
6) Seeking alignment of interests, CONG tokens will be granted, based on vesting, to top management of the Companies.
7) When the tokens get vested, these executives can use an exchange to get other tokens or fiat for CONG.
The CONG Token
We read the project´s white paper and interacted with blockchain experts to hear their thoughts about it. Overall, what we heard is that not only its tokenomics but also governance system are the first of its kind.
By bringing VC and PE features to the crypto world, the project will be able to guide and protect investors through a better investing experience. We summarized a couple of its features below:
Tokenomics
Governance
The Team
The founders came from VC/PE industry and have worked for top-tier investment funds such as: Kaszek Ventures, Lightrock, Belfer Investments, Madrone Capital Partners, BTG Pactual, Global Endowment Mgmt, Omidyar Network, Endeavor Catalyst, Quebec Impact Assets and LTS Investments.
Moreover, they have raised roughly USD 200 million and participated in close to 800 M&A deals.

Putting all together, the Team are extremely experienced which, compared to what we have seen recently regarding the crypto companies (e.g. SBF at FTX), sets the project at high bar.
Presale event
The CONG token presale event will start on January 16 at 9:00 GMT. As per company´s website, there will be other presale rounds afterwards which will have always a token price increase.
Conclusion and further analysis
Our group of journalists and blockchain experts who were asked to analyse the project and its token CONG, concluded what, crypto retail investors wanted to hear for a long time: finally, a strong and concrete project to be launched which can contribute to the return of crypto bull market periods that we all had seen nearly until a year ago.
We asked for an interview with the project´s founder and CEO, Yves Civolani, which will be arranged in a couple days and be published too.
