What does Finalis do? Finalis is on a mission to make the capital markets accessible to everyone by building the Amazon for the capital markets.
Our go-to-market strategy begins in the back office of small and medium-sized investment banks, placement agencies, and independent dealmakers globally. Since launching, we have rapidly become the central nervous system of our users' back-office operations, uniquely positioning us to facilitate the entire deal lifecycle from origination to closure legally and compliantly. Our Smart Mission to make users successful by generating more deal flow, accelerating their deals from origination to close, and unlocking more revenue per user, crucial in this transition from a back-office tool to a capital markets exchange and market intelligence purveyor, ensures we maintain the trust of our users by aligning our strategy with our users' incentives.
Our Workflow solution, which digitizes the investment banking back-office, drove continued market impact and revenue growth. In 2023, we expanded our user base to over 260 firms and 500 bankers and generated over 1,500 capital raise and M&A deals in our Connect solution. 
Connect will play a pivotal role in Finalis' next phase to deliver significant user value by driving further efficiencies across the deal lifecycle. In 2024, we aim to deliver deal origination solutions that position us as a revenue center for current and future users, significantly growing our average revenue per account. We also plan to extend our reach to new markets beyond our current ICPs, including sell side issuers like corporates and fund managers.
In 2024, we are committed to reinforcing our role as the indispensable capital markets ecosystem. Our focus will be on maximizing the value of Connect while enhancing Workflow and normalizing the vast amounts of financial data within Finalis. Join us in disrupting the securities industry, for good.
