The creator of that venture requests the crowd to contribute small amounts of capital to fund his or her concept, hosted from the OxReach internet-based platform. In return for the crowd\u2019s contributions, rewards or perks are offered to the contributors from the venture.<\/p>\n<p>Through the platform, students, academics and members of staff would be able to solicit additional financial support for the innovative, entrepreneurial or high-impact projects and ideas that they are most passionate about, and that potentially do not suit other traditional funding methods (e.g angel funding\/ grant funding etc).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Staff project based in Isis Innovation Hilary round 2015 See also Crowdfunding platform : IT Innovation project in use (blog post) For more information, please contact innovation@it.ox.ac.uk ABSTRACT This proposal comes from Isis Innovation (the University\u2019s Technology Transfer Office).
