Frequevent Question and Answer: Equity Crowdfunding

Are there other benefits of investing in startups?

Last Updated: Dec 31, 2015 03:07

Yes. And the most important are:

A chance to fund the next big thing (see Google, Facebook, Twitter, Oculus etc.).
A way to support someone you know who is following his/her dream to create a business that will bring innovation and new jobs.
The opportunity to bring your expertise and knowledge into the business you funded
