Funded Business of the Year Finalist 2013: Crowdcube

Dedicated to UK-based businesses, Crowdcube enables entrepreneurs to showcase their business’ investment potential online and raise equity finance from a nation of ‘Armchair Dragons’. This revolutionary model for raising business finance is designed to bridge the funding gap that is prevalent in today’s business landscape.

Crowdcube’s disruptive model is democratising an age-old model to give Britain’s start-ups a much needed boost. It is the next generation of business finance and a powerful force that finally empowers entrepreneurs to bypass business angel networks, venture capital firms and banks to secure funding elsewhere.
