Community Speed Investing for Local Startups

You can now invest in our community startups!

With Regulation Crowdfunding ("Reg CF"), startups can offer notes or equity directly to the public. This means that the average Joe or Jill can invest for as little as $100.

Today in Santa Cruz we have 4 startups using Reg CF, but very few people locally have invested in these companies. It is our hope that by creating this quarterly event, we will inspire local investment, and add community capital and jobs to our ecosystem.

Each startup with have 5 minutes to pitch, and 5 minutes to answer questions by our panel of investors. We will announce a 4 person investor panel next week. Learn about investment. You too will be able to ask questions and invest! Own a stake in a local startup; create jobs and revenue.
