Read full descriptionHide full description
Nova Ventures is the companion app for your investment club. Run your club from your phone: see the agenda before the meeting, vote on motions while they're live, follow the portfolio, and keep up with what the club is discussing between meetings. MEETINGS Every meeting's agenda, section by section, with each item's detail, attachments and outcome. Add a meeting to your calendar in a tap. See who's attending and mark yourself present. VOTING Motion and second an item from your seat. See what it takes to pass — simple majority, two-thirds, or ownership-weighted — before you cast. Vote while a session is live, retract before it closes, and see the result the moment it lands. Officers can open and close voting, record a ballot for a member who isn't there, and see how the room voted. AGENDA ITEMS Propose an item for an upcoming meeting. Officers review what's proposed and approve or return it, so the agenda is settled before anyone sits down. PORTFOLIO Club holdings, cash on hand, allocation and performance, with detail on every position. MARKET NOTES The research and recaps your club publishes, readable on the phone. THE WALL A place for the club to talk between meetings — post, comment, and keep officers' announcements pinned. NOTIFICATIONS Get told when a vote opens, a meeting moves, or someone posts. If you belong to more than one club, each one has its own switch, and tapping a notification takes you to the right club. Nova Ventures is for members of existing investment clubs on the Nova Ventures platform. You'll need an account from your club to sign in.
