Follow on Google News | Sequoia's Prosper and Tim Draper of Silicon Valley Keynote the Alternative Financing ConferenceThe Soho Loft Media Group, with Victoria Global, sponsors the “3rd Annual Crowdfunding Conference” organized by Silicon Valley CrowdFund Ventures on 5-6 March 2015 in Mountain View, California.
Crowdfunding platforms have seen tremendous growth driven by the passage of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act, or JOBS Act. This method gives entrepreneurs the chance to pitch to a wider range of individuals through online crowdfunding platforms. Entrepreneurs will be able to see whether or not there is enough genuine interest for their projects, should it reach commercialization, and provide them an additional avenue for financing aside from venture capitalist and angel investors. Aside from crowdfunding, the event will also look at the advantages of peer to peer lending, which works the same as crowdfunding, except the funds are treated as debt and repaid with interest.
