Crowdfunding - The Wild West of Financing Your Project

Online platforms like Kickstarter and IndieGoGo have revolutionized the way makers, gamers, app designers, and artists fund their new ventures. Crowdfunding has become so prolific it is set to surpass venture capital funds in 2016. Now famous brands such as Oculus Rift and Pebble Watch got their start on crowdfunding sites. And while crowdfunding may seem more accessible than raising money from seed or angel investors, successful crowdfunding campaigns require entrepreneurs to plan their campaigns thoughtfully.

On February 25th, we invite you to join us for an exciting evening with New Mexico’s leading crowdfunding experts. The evening begins with the New Mexico Securities Division’s Senior Regulatory Attorney, Brandon Toensing, will explain new regulations you need to know about when you launch your crowdfunding campaign. Next Nick Williams, Sunport, will share the strategies behind their successful 2015 campaign raising $120,599. We end the night with a panel discussion with founders of New Mexico’s top three funded projects: Level 99 Games, Sunport, and CENTS. These entrepreneurs expertise will help you avoid pitfalls and maximize success in the wild west of crowdfunding.
