What are their
PRODUCTS & USERS?
“Allow anybody
to raise MONEY
for any idea” — Rubin
Product: Crowd funding
Users: anyone from any fields
How was it FOUNDED?
In 2002, while working as an analyst on Wall Street, Danae Ringelmann co-produced a reading of an Arthur Miller
play. Though the performance was popular with audiences, there was little financial incentive available, and
Ringelmann decided to seek alternative revenue streams. Ringelmann was originally inspired to work with
independent filmmakers and theater producers after a filmmaker 50 years her senior saw she worked at JPMorgan and asked
her to fund his film.
In 2006, Ringelmann went on to the Haas School of Business to start a company she felt would "democratize"
fundraising. There she met Eric Schell and Slava Rubin, who had had similar experiences with fundraising.
Schell had previously worked with The House Theater Company in Chicago, while Rubin had started a charity fundraiser for
cancer research, after losing his father to cancer as a child.
In 2007, Ringelmann, Schell, and Rubin developed their concept, under the name Project Keiyaku.
In January 2008, the site officially launched at the Sundance Film Festival, with a focus on film projects.

How does it work specifically?
Users can create a page for their funding campaign, make a list of "perks" for different
levels of investment, then create a social media–based publicity effort.
Users publicize the projects themselves—through Facebook, Twitter and similar
platforms. 1The site levies a 5% fee for successful campaigns. For campaigns that fail to
raise their target amount, users have the option of either refunding all money to their
contributors at no charge or keeping all money raised minus a 9% fee. 
This option must be selected BEFORE the campaign begins, and the goal will be listed,
directly underneath the amount raised, as fixed (only receive funds if goals is met) or
flexible (will receive funds if goal is not met).
