The Smarter Web Company (SWC) has announced its intention to move its listing from the Aquis Growth Market to the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange (LSE). CEO Andrew Webley revealed the plan, which comes just nine months after the company's initial public offering in May 2025, marking a significant acceleration in its growth trajectory.
The decision follows months of strategic planning, legal work, and consultations with advisors. Webley stated the goal is to bring a UK-born technology company to one of the world's most respected exchanges and build a long-term British success story "driven by bitcoin and digital capital." The company expects the LSE listing to be completed in early February 2026, pending final approvals.
Concurrently, SWC has raised £1.67 million (before costs) over two days through its ATM-like share placement facility, strengthening its balance sheet for future growth. Webley also highlighted increasing institutional interest, having held discussions with a major UK fund manager about both Bitcoin and SWC, with more meetings planned.
A notable shift since the IPO is the regulatory and investor perception of Bitcoin. Webley noted that the company can now openly discuss its "bitcoin-treasury-policy" and "bitcoin-return," moving beyond cautious terms like "digital asset treasury." He views this as a sign of the UK financial system opening to innovation. The company's core web design business will continue to grow alongside its Bitcoin treasury strategy.
To celebrate the milestone, Webley plans to share details of a shareholder lottery linked to the LSE opening ceremony and host a social event for shareholders in London.
