  • Crowdfunding in Asia
    Crowdfunding in Asia May 2018 Introducing the first free directory of crowdfunding platforms across Asia. The data is based on the AlliedCrowds Capital Finder, a database of over 7,000 alternative finance capital providers across emerging markets. Our data has been used by organizations like FSD Asia, UNDP, World Green Economy Organization, GIZ, World Bank, and others in order to provide unique, actionable insights into the world of emerging market alternative finance. This is the latest of our regular reports on alternative finance in emerging markets; you can find all previous reports here. Crowdfunding rose in prominence in the post-financial crisis years (starting in 2012), and for good reason: a global credit crunch limited the amount of funding available to entrepreneurs and small businesses. Since then, crowdfunding has grown rapidly around the world. Crowdfunding is especially consequential in countries where SMEs find it difficult to raise capital to start or grow their businesses. This is the case in many Asian countries; according to the SME Finance Forum, there is a $2.3 trillion MSME credit gap in East Asia and the Pacific. Crowdfunding can help to fill this gap by offering individuals and small businesses an alternative source of capital. This can come in the form of donation-based as well as lending-based (peer-to-peer or peer-to-business) crowdfunding. In order to help entrepreneurs and small business owners to find the crowdfunding platform that’s right for them, we are releasing the first publicly available list of all crowdfunding platforms across Asia. The report is split into two key sections: the first one is an overview of crowdfunding platforms, and how active they are across the largest markets on the continent.

  • REWARD-BASED CROWDFUNDING for CREATIVE PROJECTS by Aiste Juozaponyte 1548985 GRADUATION ASSIGNMENT SUBMITTED in PARTIAL FULFILLM
    REWARD-BASED CROWDFUNDING FOR CREATIVE PROJECTS BY Aiste Juozaponyte 1548985 GRADUATION ASSIGNMENT SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF BACHELOR OF COMMUNICATION- SYSTEMS OF THE INSTITUTE OF COMMUNICATION AT THE UTRECHT UNIVERSITY OF APPLIED SCIENCES UTRECHT, 2012 06 04 Management summary Crowdfunding is an emerging phenomenon that is taking the idea of investment into a new and never before seen level. Organizations and individuals find themselves achiev- ing successful results by relying on widely dispersed individuals rather than professional investors. The main aim of this thesis centers on potentials for non-professional creative individuals to use reward-based crowdfunding. The theoretical framework defines crowdfunding practice and gives an overview of how it emerged from another nascent term - crowdsourcing. Reward-based crowdfunding, as the focus of this study, is explained in greater detail by observing one of the most popular platforms for creative projects called Kickstarter. In addition, this chapter highlights that the crowd is playing a leading role in crowdfunding initiatives. Participating individuals are part of a community where conver- gence and collaboration take place. Furthermore, theory suggests that reward-based crowdfunding is not solely focused on economic aspects, as social attributes are shaping the scope of activities and goals. Conducted qualitative research confirms that several potentials are current for non- professional creative individuals to use reward-based crowdfunding model as researched on Kickstarter. Not only can they raise funding, but also gain significant public attention for their projects presented on Kickstarter. An appealing and transparent communication approach should be implemented, such as defining goals using S.M.A.R.T.
