With seed money hard to come by these days, most Entrepreneurs are making full use of new resources available to them: crowd-funding websites. Most of us are well aware what exactly crowd-funding is, but just in case you haven’t heard of it…crowd-funding is basically a community that funds ideas, dreams, and projects.

Oops! Wait there’s more…
Eppela is a new crowdfunding website out of Italy. I’m glad to see support for Entrepreneurs being gathered other there in Italy as well (I’ve got 2 Italian co-founders on my team!). This crowdfunding website supports social projects, art & entertainment, as well as lifestyle & technology businesses.
I don’t know how in the world we forgot Indie Go Go…the world’s largest and earliest (founded in 2008) crowdfunding website. They have helped to raise millions of dollars for over 30,000 campaigns, across 194 countries.
Value is the only commonality in an increasingly complex, challenging and interdependent world.
