CONTRIBUTION-BASED CROWDFUNDING - A STEPPING STONE FOR TOMORROW'S RENEWABLE ENERGY TECHNOLOGIES

The renewable energy industry is all too familiar with the “valley of death.” This is the troublesome and significant funding gap that arises between the invention of a promising new technology and having sufficient capital to bring that great idea to market. Unfortunately, many renewable energy initiatives die on the vine due to the risk aversion of venture capitalists, a phenomenon that is impeding our industry’s growth and success.

There is hope, however, for bridging that valley of death: crowdfunding. Are you wondering how? Our recent post, published by the Renewable Energy Crowdfunding Conference (http://cleanreach.com/press-room ), explains how contribution-based and investment crowdfunding can create a funding synergy to bridge to overcome that “valley of death.”
