What Equity Crowdfunding Means for Indie Developers

Overview:

Crowdfunding continues to grow at a dramatic rate, and to date, more dollars have been pledged to video games than any other category on Kickstarter.

Crowdfunding opportunities are expected to increase significantly - and virtually overnight. Indie developers need to understand the requirements, conditions and limitations for equity crowdfunding in order to understand whether this new funding source may be right for them.
