Business Series: Equity Crowdfunding – Alternative Investment to Scale
Event description
Early stage businesses often fail as a result of limited access to capital. Tune in our webinar to hear how your startup can leverage crowdfunding from seed capital to IPO. Equitise co-founder Jonny Wilkinson will talk us through the steps and key decision points in the crowdfunding process.
The investment ecosystem is dominated by talk about growth aggressive VC’s and unicorn angel investors. Jonny Wilkinson has disrupted that narrative with his fin-tech startup Equitise – a crowdfunding investment platform that lets regular Australians invest in unique start-ups.
Jonny will also share how Equitise jumped the legislative hurdles to retail equity crowdfunding in Australia. After a stint in New Zealand learning the ropes, Jonny returned to Australia to receiving one of Australia’s first crowdfunding licences and launched Equitise on the same day raising almost $2.8 million.
