Jump Start City is the first and only backer-centric crowdfunding platform. Our social platform launched on June 1 with a 63 initial events. The distinctive 3-stage funding process ensures that every event gets noticed, the biggest potential pitfall for any crowdfunding project. Our model allows the community members to be involved in many more ways than simply pulling out their wallets. The site’s activities include voting to approve which events launch in the city, increasing their city rank by being active in the community, and joining the marketing team of specific events by becoming an official Promoter. The site’s “sticky” environment means backers hang around on the site forming the world’s first, truly cohesive crowdfunding community. And this is exactly what creators are looking for when seeking a platform to launch their product on. Inventors, entrepreneurs and creators want their idea to become a reality. Backers want a place to call home in the crowdfunding world; a place to build relationships, support innovation and just hang out. Jump Start City has the answer for both.
