Crowdfunding - The First Choice, New Funding, Better Fundingtwintangibles
These slides were used by Tim Wright at the Deep Impact Crowdfunding Conference 2014. The session explored what makes crowdfunding the funding of choice despite it being hard work and with relatively low success rates.
Using statistics and anecdote Tim set out the additional benefits that crowdfunding delivers over and above finance and linked it to the emerging Crowdasset framework model which describes the value of assets in the crowd and external to the organisation, and how to understand the diversity of value on offer there.

Things startups need to know if they want to raise capital from Silicon ValleyJeff Clavier
I used this deck in a keynote at the Kima Ventures portfolio day, in Paris (France) on Dec 9, 2013. Kima has a very large portfolio of investments, mostly located outside of the US. Founders often hope to raise capital in Silicon Valley over the course of their financing journey, and my goal was to draw their attention to the traps and pitfalls ahead of them.
• Presentations from sources of grant, debt and equity funding, as well as business support agencies operating in the region
• The presentations will be short and sharp giving the delegate a basis for an assessment of which funding stream/funder matches their requirements
• To have a targeted session depending on your business needs – with a session focussed on start-up/early stage businesses
This event was prompted by three developments in and/or affecting the local food and drink producers:
1.Increased demand for product – including for export
2.Cessation of a number of grant schemes – historically a source of expansion funding
3.Popularity and accessibility of Crowdfunding to businesses in the sector

These proposals open up new means for entrepreneurs to raise capital from the general public but also introduce new requirements for a). Issuers who wish to raise capital, b). Public investors and c). Portals that post the offerings. This seminar will provide a view of the challenges ahead and what an entrepreneur can do to run a successful campaign.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

increased by 60% over the
past year and searches for

4. The way it is…
• Grants complicated and time consuming
• Debt finance hard to come by
• What if a large number of people lent a smaller
amount?
• Venture capital difficult to find for smaller
requirements
• Business angels – limited investments
• Typically a syndicate each investing £10k - £100k
• Is there a way to have 5000 angels each investing
£10?
• What if anyone could become involved?
5. Crowdfunding
• Crowdfunding is an approach to raising the capital required for a
new project or enterprise by appealing to large numbers of ordinary
people for small amounts
• Possible via the web and driven through Social Media
• Crowdfunding examples
• Funding Circle.com – 68k UK based lenders, > £220m lent,
<1.4% bad debt
• Kickstarter.com – >132,000 launched projects, > $977m
