General description

According to Wikipedia [[1]], crowdfunding was introduced based on the charity principle.

We will introduce crowdfunding for ideas, including:

  • (i) Charity model: just provide money - YES
  • (ii) Loan, example: I provide you 100 kNOK, and will get 150 kNOK back after 12 months (otherwise the company is bankcrupt) - Note: Innovasjon Norge provides a loan based on markets tax rates, e.g. 4% - YES
  • (iii) Shares. What is the actual value of the company? "siste emisjon kan være 6 måneder gammel" - YES

The current version focusses on establishing the contact between the idea owner and those who want to provide crowdfunding.

It includes

  • a new design of all InnoBors pages (symbol after the idea)
  • an Admin Page for initiating crowdfunding
  • changes to the idea page

new design of page two
