Where Social Networking Meets The Capital Markets

Crowdfunding is poised to revolutionize how venture-stage companies raise capital. By combining social media with equity-based financing, crowdfunding is expected to launch a new era in how early stage financing transactions are consummated.

While most believe that crowdfunding will become a prevalent way to gain access to equity-based capital, even today, crowdfunding has become big business. Peer-based lending websites like Kiva, reward-based websites like Kickstarter and IndieGoGo, and accredited investor-based websites are proliferating. By our count, there are nearly 400 sites worldwide engaged in some form of crowd-based funding.

The Crowdfunding Conference is a forum for discussion of new sources of capital, but also a forum to discuss what's happening in crowdfunding today, under the present framework of global laws and social networking protocols.

The Crowdfunding Conference will bring together experts from the financial world, social media platforms and the legislature to discuss all of the key issues relating to small company capital formation.


Early registration is only $695 ($200 off the regular price) before February 24th.
