About Moxy Vote
Overview
We made this site to give shareholders a voice in the boardrooms of companies they own. We want to empower the little guy. We want to bridge the gaps between the buttoned-up world of the corporate boardroom and shareholders in suburban office parks, union halls, church meeting rooms, and anywhere else that people with big ideas gather. We want to allow the free exchange of good information among shareholders, advocate groups, and public companies. Moxy Vote will make it easy to get informed, get involved, and take a stand.
Our team comprises people from financial services and Internet industries who saw a chance to build something interesting and powerful and decided to go for it.
