Ownership
Vela is owned and operated by Connact Inc..
Funding model
Vela is independently operated and self-funded by Connact Inc. Revenue comes from paid subscriptions, the intelligence API / data services, clearly labeled sponsored (advertorial) content, and advertising. Editorial content is kept independent from commercial partnerships.
Conflict-of-interest disclosure
Editorial decisions are made independently of advertisers, sponsors, and commercial partners. No sponsor or advertiser is given influence over our reporting, and our team does not trade on, or hold undisclosed positions tied to, the companies we cover.
Sponsored content
Any paid or sponsored content is clearly labeled and visually separated from editorial coverage, so readers always know what is independent journalism and what is a paid placement.
