Abstract

For several years, the topic of crowdfunding is present in cultural fields as an alternative form of financing. Platforms such as Kickstarter or Startnext enable artists to realize projects with the financial support of their “crowd”, through which the individual becomes sponsor and investor. This paper deals with the basic function of crowdfunding, including its advantages as well as problems that may occur. The question of what role crowdfunding will have in the financing mix of cultural projects in the longer term will be a central concern of this study.
