hello folks ,
Kickstarter , it's a site that allows people to invest in various
projects, giving people real money to develop an idea. Those ideas vary
from film-making to programming video games, but the concept is the same
regardless of the project
http://www.kickstarter.com/
Kickstarter is the world's largest funding platform for creative
projects. Every week, tens of thousands of amazing people pledge millions
of dollars to projects from the worlds of music, film, art, technology,
design, food, publishing and other creative fields.
A new form of commerce and patronage. This is not about investment or
lending. Project creators keep 100% ownership and control over their work.
Instead, they offer products and experiences that are unique to each
project.
All or nothing funding. On Kickstarter, a project must reach its funding
goal before time runs out or no money changes hands. Why? It protects
everyone involved. Creators aren?t expected to develop their project
without necessary funds, and it allows anyone to test concepts without risk.
Thanks
Narendra
