Crowdfunding Success
This page contains automatically translated content.
Project description
The aim of the project is to identify influencing factors that could have led to underfunding of an existing crowdfunding campaign for an innovative, electric bicycle. Initially, the influencing factors that could have had a negative impact on the success of the campaign are to be identified systematically and from a scientific point of view. This analysis then forms the basis for the re-conception of a new crowdfunding campaign, within the framework of which new and innovative measures to promote the project are to be created. After the re-conception and relaunch of the crowdfunding project, it should be evaluated whether the conceptualized measures have a positive effect on the success of the project and thus serve as success factors.
