Startup Diamantech raises 160k euros in equity crowdfunding

Italian startup company Diaman Tech srl raised almost 160k euros in equity crowdfunding using Unicaseed portal (managed by Italian financial broker Unicasim). The equity crowdfunding round closed 10 pct over its target last March 31st (download here the Italian press release).
This was the first deal of this kind in Italy and in the World as this was the first time an equity crowdfunding deal has been closed after a national law and a supervision authority had been ruling on the sector.
Following a specific input by the Government, Consob  published last Summer 2013 a “Regulation on the raising of venture capital by innovative start-ups through on-line portals”, thanks to which Italy has become the first EU country to have introduced a structured legislation on equity-based crowdfunding.
