Crowdfunding has become very popular, in and outside India. People interested to start small scale business are able to procure a lot of funds with the help of crowdfunding. Now to ask what is crowdfunding, one has to answer that it is basically making use of social networks to get hold of investors and contributors willing to spend their money for a cause. Crowdfunding is helpful for those inexperienced entrepreneurs who lack the resources or the social circles in order to approach the potential investors. It is thus a great opportunity for the entrepreneurs to acquire a lot of funds for their projects.

A lot of crowdfunding programmes now come with a reward-based system whereby, the investors are given rewards for their contributions or a chance to be a part of the inauguration of the new product whose launch was aided by their sponsorships. This is to answer the question – “what’s in it for the investors?”. Crowdfunding also comes with equity based systems. It allows start up companies to raise money without giving up control to venture capital investors. It also offers investors the opportunity to earn an equity position in the venture.
