New York City-based GrowthFountain, an equity crowdfunding platform, is preparing for "The Heartland Tour," to shine the spotlight on business startups and get credit union partners involved in the process.
GrowthFountain plans ten U.S. stops, in coordination with select credit unions and accelerator partners, in a mission to help businesses raise capital needed to grow. Crowdfunding is the practice of funding a project or venture by raising small amounts of money from a large number of people, typically via the internet.
"We thought what better way to launch our credit union partnerships than with a cross-country tour where we travel to 10 cities to specifically help their specific business community raise the capital they need to grow," GrowthFountain CEO Ken Staut said.
