The Crowd Data Center (a new data aggregator for crowd funding) has released a report on this nascent industry. Interestingly they say that a new project is being set up every three minutes, and that the numbers are doubling every 60 days!
More than $133m was raised from crowdfunding – rewards and equity - in the first quarter of the year and 500 new projects are being launched daily on crowdfunding platforms around the world, according to a new report from the UK’s CrowdDataCentre.
