April has been a huge month for crowdfunding. The month kicked off with some major events centered on the first birthday of the JOBS Act, while a few days later, our sister research and advisory arm, massolution, released 2013CF, the 2nd Crowdfunding Industry Reportthat has quickly become the standard for those looking for valuable data on one of the globe’s most exciting sectors.
Worldwide media outlets sat up and took notice of the big growth numbers that the Crowdfunding industry posted in 2012 — massolution’s predictions from last year’s report turned out to be on target — while also looking to the future and continued growth that is expected to turn crowdfunding into a $5.1 billion industry by next year.
