Crowdfunding Market

Market Overview:

The global crowdfunding market size reached US$ 16.5 Billion in 2023. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 42.9 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 11.26% during 2024-2032. The growing technological innovations in crowdfunding platforms, rising demand for crowdfunding campaigns to offer better exposure to upcoming projects, and increasing number of startup projects represent some of the key factors driving the market.

Crowdfunding refers to a small amount of capital obtained from a large number of individuals to finance a new business venture. It relies on vast networks of people through social media and crowdfunding websites to bring investors and entrepreneurs together. It is used to increase entrepreneurship by expanding the pool of investors beyond the traditional circle of owners, relatives, and venture capitalists. It allows investors to select from several projects and generate revenue from a percentage of the funds raised. Crowdfunding assists in pitching a project or business through the online platform for enhanced marketing and media attention. It also aids in testing the reaction of the public to new products or ideas and promotes various brands through their networks. It is more efficient as compared to applying for a loan or seeking out accredited investors while providing validation and social proof. As it is a fast way to raise finance with no upfront fees, the demand for crowdfunding is rising across the globe.

Crowdfunding Market Trends:

At present, the rising crowdfunding activities on social media platforms and increasing presence of upcoming projects represent one of the key factors supporting the growth of the market. In addition, the growing technological innovations in crowdfunding platforms, such as using artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) technologies, are positively influencing the market. Besides this, there is a rise in the demand for crowdfunding campaigns to offer better exposure to upcoming projects around the world. This, along with the increasing number of startup projects, is offering lucrative growth opportunities to industry investors. Moreover, the rising awareness among the masses about the benefits of crowdfunding platforms is propelling the growth of the market. Apart from this, there is an increase in the utilization of crowdfunding platforms as they help people start online campaigns, predict the behavior of investors, create innovative content, detect fraud, show targeted ads, and verify the identities of campaigners. This, coupled with the growing employment of AI-driven chatbots in crowdfunding platforms to assist the campaigners in fundraising deals and launch campaigns, is offering a favorable market outlook. Additionally, the increasing demand for debt-based crowdfunding to allow startup companies to access funds at a lower cost without navigating through the complicated procedures of conventional banking is bolstering the growth of the market.
