Company Summary
Copper Street is a Seed stage startup in Austin, TX. We're focused on investment education and bringing new investors into the stock market. We'll be a fun (gamified), educational, and social investment platform where users compete and learn the markets before graduating to trading the real markets.
A recent study shows 70% of Millennials would prefer to save their money in cash rather than invest in the markets - we intend to bridge that gap.
