About Dream Exchange
The Dream Exchange is preparing its application and operations to become registered as the first minority company to operate a stock exchange in the history of the United States. In addition, Dream Exchange noticed that a transformative development is in the horizon that aligns seamlessly with the Dream Exchange’s mission: The Main Street Growth Act, a bill that was introduced to Congress, will allow for the creation of a new type of stock exchange, called a venture exchange. If enacted, this legislation has the potential to usher in a new era for small and early-stage businesses, including minority-owned companies, and offers enhanced access to capital and expanded opportunities for growth. This bill furthers Dream Exchange’s mission to create equal access to a marketplace that instills ethics, humanity, and fairness into finance.
