KoreTalkX’s Growth Throughout 2022

Posted on by Oscar Jofre

After launching our podcast, KoreTalkX, earlier this year, we’ve seen it grow as we continue to host industry thought leaders to share their perspective on the private capital markets through empowering conversations. Our Spotify Wrapped tells a remarkable story of the success of a podcast that is looking to make a huge impact on the capital industry and its listeners.

 

A Year of Impressive Numbers

 

Throughout 2022, the KoreTalkX podcast released 1,071 minutes of new content, which is 92% more than other podcast creators in the business category. And, our global audience is a representation of how capital raising in the day of JOBS Act regulations is becoming a global industry. The podcast is listened to in 7 different countries, including Brazil, the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Bulgaria.

 

The Top Content of 2022

 

When it came to the most listened-to talk of 2022, our episode titled Cannabis Businesses Need Capital had 287% more streams than the average episode. Our podcast also ranks among the top 10% of podcasts shared globally, reflecting one of the primary goals of this series–the share of information and knowledge.

 

The “Devotee” Audience

 

The KoreTalkX podcast also gained a lot of traction from our “devotee” audience, Spotify’s term for a listener who loves to listen over and over again. Throughout the year, KoreTalkX ranked as a top 10 podcast for 48 fans, a top 5 podcast for 36 fans, and a number one podcast for 14 fans showing the power of its content in the industry. 

 

All in all, it has been an incredible year for the KoreConX Podcast. From a global audience who is quick to support new releases to the ‘devotee’ audience who continues to prove their loyalty by returning to listen over and over again, looking to the future, it will be exciting to see what KoreTalkX has in store for the coming year.

Recapping Our All-Star June Podcast Guests

Posted on by Oscar Jofre

Throughout June, we were happy to host another set of excellent speakers to add to our KoreTalkX series, covering timely topics like digital securities, RegA+ for cannabis, and the potential RegA+ unlocks for companies in the Medtech space. Keep reading to explore each episode in more depth. 

 

KoreTalkX #5: Digital securities matter; tokens, coins, and regulations.

 

The June lineup of KoreTalks kicked off with episode #5, during which Andrew Bull discussed the future of digital assets and their impact on the financial industry. As digital securities enter the mainstream, their potential to protect issuers and create opportunities for investors grows with the transparency they can offer. However, education will continue to be an important factor in driving the expansion of the digital asset space. This conversation is helpful for anyone interested in learning more about digital assets and their impact on the financial industry. With their experience in traditional finance and digital assets, Andrew Bull and Dr. Garimella provide valuable insights into this growing industry based on their observations of the industry’s development. 

 

KoreTalkX #6: Cannabis businesses need capital. Let’s raise it.

 

Reg A+ is a powerful tool for companies in the private sector, and it is no different for those in the cannabis industry. In KoreTalkX #6, Brianna Martyn of Big Stock Tips discussed the importance of due diligence when investing in the cannabis industry, advising investors to research and understand each company’s fundamentals before investing. Brianna spoke with Jessica Trapani of KoreConX about our role in helping private companies raise up to $75 million from brand advocates and customers without going public. 

 

KoreTalk #7: The MedTech ecosystem is booming.

 

The JOBS Act was signed into law two decades ago, yet we are just beginning to see more Medtech companies utilize the RegA+ exemption to raise capital. In the last KoreTalkX episode for June, Stephen Brock and Peter Daneyko discussed the benefits of the Jobs Act and how it will help businesses grow and create jobs. Especially in the Medtech space, which is traditionally capital-intensive, RegA+ provides a tremendous opportunity for companies to raise needed capital while retaining more ownership of their company. Additionally, the speakers also discuss new, game-changing opportunities for investors, who are now able to invest in companies that align with deeply personal values.
