How do I get a verified badge for my investment firm's Investor profile?

Some Investors in our database have a Verified Badge in their investor profile. This means that e27 has confirmed the authenticity of the Investor profile and that the profile administrator is a current employee of the Investment firm. This gives startups confidence in the information & contact point, that is presented in our directory. 

What are the requirements to get a Verified Badge?

To get a verified badge in the mentioned profile, we look at certain fields to determine if they meet our verification criteria. Your account must be:

   2. There is a Company Logo (for firms).
   3. There is an appointed representative managing the Investor profile. 
   4. Representative must have an active email address linked to the firm
2. Active: The firm must be an active Investment Firm
   1. This means the investment firm is actively investing.
