Panelists:

Crowdfunding is now booming phenomenon with the potential to radically change the seed stage funding of entrepreneurial projects. According to the last Crowdfunding Industry Report, the capital raised through crowdfunding reached 2.7 billion dollars from over 1 million campaigns, representing an 81% increase over 2011 (Massolution, 2012). Unsurprisingly, there is an increasingly scholarly interest on crowdfunding, which is both an interesting phenomenon and a context suitable for testing empirical research. The aim of this special section is to put together entrepreneurship scholars interested in crowdfunding to take stock of current research on the topic and to outline future research directions. The panelists and discussants will cover diverse topics including timing of the decision to crowdfund ideas; the role of reputation in crowdfunding; and entrepreneurship without gatekeepers: crowdfunding, gender, and social constraints.
