The crowdfunding industry raised $16.2 billion in 2014, a 167% increase over the $6.1 billion raised in 2013 and shows no signs of slowing down. Last November the Texas State Securities Board voted unanimously to allow Texas-based businesses to raise up to $1 million annually through online crowdfunding platforms.
“I am excited to bring Houston its very first event showcasing a cast of hometown crowdfunding firms. This industry diversifies sources of funding for small businesses and entrepreneurs which is critical in their early stages of formation and growth. The panelists for this event are market leaders and set the bar high for future Houston and Texas based crowdfunders,” said Napoleon T. Butic, CEO of Trout Payment Systems.
