WHAT IS START ENGINE?

Spotlight on Crowdfunding
Crowdfunding is an evolving method of raising money via the Internet to fund a variety of projects. The Jumpstart Our Business Startups (JOBS) Act created an exemption under the federal securities laws so that crowdfunding can be used to offer and sell securities to the general public. The JOBS Act also established the regulatory structure for raising capital through securities offerings using crowdfunding, including limits on the amount of money companies can raise and investors can invest.
For Investors
What are the risks? Who can invest? How much? There’s detailed information in our Investor Bulletin. Details on an increase in crowdfunding investment limits and a bulletin on the use of SAFEs in crowdfunding also are available.
For Intermediaries
Crowdfunding investments can only be made through an online platform operated by an intermediary (a registered broker-dealer or funding portal). These intermediaries link potential investors to companies seeking crowdfunding investments.
