I'm fascinated with crowdfunding of startups/projects/etc. So I had the founders of Profounder and Crowdrise on This week in StartupsThe roundtable starts about five or six minutes in (if you want to skip my banter with Tyler about turning 40!). Thanks to .co and sendgrid for sponsoring this episode!
⬐ bradleyjoyceIt looks interesting for sure. I signed up while I was watching the interview yesterday, but didn't see anywhere on the site where I could actually submit information about my startup for funding... it just gave me an investor profile.⬐ walkercorplawAs I discuss on Quora, there are significant securities-law issues that must be addressed (see http://bit.ly/egcdr5). My advice to all startups is to be very careful with these kinds of sites. I have gotten calls from several entrepreneurs who have run into problems with securities regulators. Thanks, Scott (@ScottEdWalker)⬐ bradleyjoyceyou might watch the interview for quite a bit more insight into their approach. It seems they have spent quite a bit of time/money making sure everything is kosher.
