Excited about crowdfunding? Do not miss this Twitter chat with Rick Chen, Co-founder and Director of Pozible, a crowdfunding platform and community-building tool for creative projects and ideas. Pozible was founded on a need to make finance available in many ways to people who all have unique needs and talents. Driven by their own knowledge of startups and crowdsourcing for social enterprise and community development, they developed a model flexible enough for all kinds of endeavours, with few of the time and complexity issues of traditional funding models.

- Pozible just expanded to Singapore and Malaysia. How are crowdfunding initiatives in Asia-Pacific shaping up and what is the future?
- What is the current state of regulations on equity and rewards-based crowdfunding in Asia?
- What’s next in rewards-based crowdfunding?
- What happens after a successful crowdfunding round? How can individuals /startups keep up the momentum?
- With all the crowdfunding projects right now, how can you find funders and how can funders find you?
- Will we see a fatigue or decline in interest and investments as the crowdfunding space gets more and more crowded?
- What is your perspective on corporations taking up crowdfunding, such as GE?
So tune in to chat with Rick about all things crowdfunding!
