2. Crowdfunded sponsorship for specific developments - follow up: Sponsorship proposal submission template design, guidelines, what is expected, tools
   • On average those platforms charge 5% of the total amount raised
   • Plus they have transfer fees that go up to 25 euros or 3% of the transaction amount
   • There are basically two models
   • Flexible Funding: "Keep Your Money No Matter What"
   • If the goal amount is not reached, the creator can decide if that's enough and keep the money and work with that
   • Fixed Funding: basically all-or-nothing
   • if the amount is not reached, it is returned to every sponsor and no fees are charged
   • Basics for every platform
   • stakeholders:
     • Creator: the person or team behind the project idea, working to bring it to life.
     • Backers (sponsors)
     • Platform acts as a trustee
   • Basic rules
     • Projects must create something to share with others. It cannot be something private
     • Projects and backer statistics must be honest and clearly presented after the project is done.
     • Prototype demonstration should reflect a product’s current or desired state and should not include any CGI or special effects to demonstrate functionality that won't be included*.
   • In every platform it is clearly stated that Clear, transparent communication is key
   • The project wants to use one of the platforms initially.
   • Next week we vote on which platform to use
