After 1.5 years of data crunching, research, numerous interviews with stakeholders, surveys, workshops and crowdsourcing activities, the Crowdfunding4Culture has just announced that its final report “Crowdfunding: reshaping the crowd’s engagement in culture” is now online and available to download.
The first study provides a complete overview on the use and impact of crowdfunding for the cultural and creative sectors (CCS) in Europe. It maps and analyses how crowdfunding is currently being used for the benefit of cultural and creative activities, and evaluates to what extent barriers hamper the further integration of crowdfunding in the financing mix and broader practice of CCS actors. The report also introduces a number of policy measures that could be undertaken by local, regional and European authorities in order to facilitate the use of crowdfunding, as an additional method of financing for CCS.
The Crowdfunding4Culture team invites you to go through the report and share it with interested friends, researchers and colleagues.
For those who did not make it into the Crowdfunding4Culture Conference on 20 June, there is a short video coverage of the event.
You can still follow most presentations and panel discussion on the project’s Facebook and Twitter page.
The study is accompanied by a website that has been developed as a European information hub on everything related to crowdfunding for culture. The website contains among others:

- a map of all crowdfunding platforms across Europe (including comparative information on the crowdfunding models being used, costs of use, etc.) that have a specific focus on the Cultural and Creative Sectors;
- a repository of case studies that have been developed in the context of this study; and an inventory of interesting events, news, tools and studies that relate to crowdfunding for the CCS.
