Description
Ideame is a crowdfunding initiative supporting entrepreneurs developing projects of educational, economic and social impact in Latin America. Ideame was launched August 12th, 2011 in response to a lack of capital for creative projects in the region.
At the start of the crowdfunding project, “creators” register their ideas and select one of two types of funding. Once the project is uploaded, the Ideame team verifies the project meets the requirements and, once approval is granted, the campaign can start. Collaborators choose a project and the rewards available, depending on their contribution.
There are two types of funding:
- All or Nothing. The creator must meet 100% of their funding goal before the deadline, otherwise, the collaborators are reimbursed for their contributions. This method is more effective for creative projects.
- Everything Helps. with this funding model, the idea is any contribution can help develop a project toward its goals, even if it does the funding goal is not met.
Projects are categorized as follows: arts, sports, education, technology, fashion, social impact, publishing, environmentalism, music, city planning, among others. Several countries are involved in the project: Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, México, USA and Uruguay.
