CROWD FUNDING

Inspired by crowdsourcing, crowd funding refers to people pooling their money together, via the Internet, to support the efforts of other people. It has been used for a variety of things from disaster relief to citizen journalism to political campaigns. Crowd funding can replace specialized grant applications and traditional fundraising with a more casual, yet powerful, approach based on the wisdom of the crowd. This topic discusses the latest trends on crowd funding as it continues to evolve.
