It involves raising small amounts of money from a large number of individuals or investors, typically through online platforms. These platforms connect entrepreneurs (创业者) with potential backers who contribute funds to support a specific project, business, or idea. Types of Crowdfunding Donation-based Crowdfunding-People donate a small amount of money without receiving credit. Reward-Based Crowdfunding-Backers get a reward, such as a product sample or easy access, in exchange for their contribution. This model is popular for startups and creative projects.
