American Marconi Wireless News - Sugarfina Corporation and EquiDeFi Ltd. Jointly Announce the Latest Direct to Cap Table Investment Opportunity to be Hosted on EquiDeFi's Private Investment Platform

FT. LAUDERDALE, FL AND LAS VEGAS, NV / ACCESS Newswire / June 2, 2026 / EquiDeFi was selected by Sugarfina for its private investing software platform designed to enable companies to directly reach large audiences of investors. EquiDeFi distinguishes itself by building software for direct investing where investors can build their own personal portfolios. In joining with Sugarfina, EquiDeFi has added one of the most recognized luxury consumer brands in the US.

Scott LaPorta, Chief Executive Officer of Sugarfina, said "Sugarfina has appeared in Vogue, Forbes, The Wall Street Journal, People, and the TODAY Show, and has been found in the boutiques at Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus, and Bergdorf Goodman. With $32.6M in 2025 revenue, 2,000+ wholesale doors, 7 retail boutiques, international distribution across 5 countries, and a strong celebrity following, we plan to invest in future growth through selective acquisitions of additional luxury brands, building on our existing portfolio, which includes Caffe Luxxe, BOXFOX, and Candy Club."

EquiDeFi's unique compliance platform provides companies of tomorrow the tools they need to effortlessly engage and close new investors. The company contrasts its approach to portals, and managed closed-end funds, trusts and SPVs that acquire portfolios of private companies through asset managers that may impose commissions, annual fees, and performance fees. EquiDeFi provides an alternative that has already been deployed by issuers offering over $1 billion in private securities. Investors select private investment opportunities directly and assemble a personal portfolio without incurring investment fees or extra costs.

Said Paul L. Kessler, who has guided and overseen over 700 investment transactions and co-founded Start Engine, LLC, at the time the largest technology incubator in Los Angeles, which launched over 50 technology companies, "Our management team is thrilled to have discovered EquiDeFi for our latest offering. When choosing a platform, we looked to engage a marketing team independent from a software solution to reach our luxury brand demographics. EquiDeFi easily differentiated itself by working with our marketing resources and is itself positioned to meet the expectations of high-quality issuers using its AI and modern tech stack to provide superior service."

Co-founder and President of EquiDeFi Harvey Kesner added "Sugarfina represents the ideal client for attracting individual investors. With a sophisticated consumer base that knows the value of pre-IPO investing, investors have a unique opportunity to participate in the growth of a brand they already know and trust."
