Crowdfunding your business

Right now, there is an opportunity to have your crowdfunding campaign matched!

In my podcast Risk & Rise, we are featuring resources to help your business. Here is the latest one:

Thundafund.Africa has partnered with Standard Bank to help startup entrepreneurs and qualifying businesses get their business dreams funded!

Thundafund is a way for entrepreneurs and startups to crowdfund and test their business ideas, build a community, and find their customers. They currently have an initiative running with Standard Bank, where whatever you raise through your crowdfunding campaign, up to R50,000 will be matched (if your business meets the qualifying criteria, T's and C's do apply!). For more information, see: https://www.thunda.fund/opportunity .

Amongst other qualifying criteria, your business should fit into one of these categories:

• Woman-owned business (Minimum 51% ownership)
• Youth-owned business (Minimum 51% ownership and under 35 years of age)
• A business that has been affected directly by a disaster e.g. riots or natural disaster
• A business located in a rural or township area.

Erica Schofield , CEO of Thundafund, shares more about this opportunity in the Risk & Rise podcast - here is a snippet:
