If we can acknowledge that our fate is connected with the fate of others and that of the collective world, then we must ask ourselves how we can improve the world within our capacity. How do we progress while ensuring the socio-economic and emotional wellbeing of others? One of the answers is through Crowdfunding. ‘Crowdfunding: The Story Of People’ uses a data-driven storytelling approach to capture the impact and potential of crowdfunding in a world governed by inequality. It does so while maintaining a constant grip on both the micro and macro perspectives of collective giving, social collaboration, and financial inclusion. As people, we see life from a shared prism, but how we interpret it often varies. All of us have a unique way of deriving meaning from the stories around us. We all share an inherent tendency to look at something small and connect it with larger patterns. It is how we make sense of our world: through connections, patterns, and shared interpretations. By stitching together stories and data from around the world, the authors have successfully mapped the crowdfunding universe in a lucid and riveting manner. The authors flip through the pages of history to shed light on people’s collective efforts and diverse fundraising techniques that have evolved into modern-day crowdfunding. They explore the current industry trends of crowdfunding, the challenges it faces, and piece together the potential solutions to those problems.
