Webinar: Fondsenwerving
By LUCA School of Arts
Sinds kort vindt men crowdfunding steeds vaker terug als vorm van “alternatieve financieringen”. Crowdfunding is een vorm van collaboratieve of participatieve financiering van een project via een groot aantal kleine investeerders. Vandaar het woord “crowd” (menigte). In deze workshop gaan we in op de verschillende fases van een geslaagde fondsenwerving, geven we tips & tricks voor, maar ook voorbeelden van crowdfunding. We zoomen ook in op het platform dat door LUCA School of Arts werd ontwikkeld in samenwerking met KOALECT. Webinar en het platform staan open voor studenten, alumni en docenten van LUCA School of Arts.
