You don't always have to go to angel investors or venture capitalists when seeking funding for your idea or startup. The popularity of platforms like Kickstarter helped crowdfunding establish itself as a serious alternative to rocket boosting your project. This January we will be joined by thought leaders in this space for a presentation/panel giving you all you need to know about crowdfunding.

Liked the people, but I was hoping for more specific help in starting a crowd funding campaign, and was disappointed that Brick City doesn't really make the process much easier. They are more focused on general education. It would more helpful if on their website they have a community page of videographers, IP references, web developers & marketers. Along with approx. costs that should be anticipated, it would be a much more useful reference. I'll keep looking elsewhere in the meantime.

Hello all. In case you have not found out yet I am one of the unfortunate 150k travelers that got stranded due to jet blues cancellations over the past week. Right now I am extremely delayed. Happy to have started my journey home to nj but still facing possibly missing out on this wonderful event. I have provided my slides to Anthony and Judith and am crushed its looking like I won't make it. Please so reach out to me if you have any specific intellectual property questions BEFORE you launch your campaigns or if you have already launched then right away. I do hope to meet all of you. This is the cap to one of the most annoying weeks of my life. This is a first for me. I'm here to make it up to each and everyone of you so whatever the question please let me know. Stay warm!

Sorry I can't make it...great topic and speakers. It is an alternative to Angel or VC funding as well as providing market validation.

I currently have a crowdfunding campaign on Indiegogo.com. Here's the link http://igg.me/p/607266/x/540469... please share and donate to my campaign. I have a co-venture agreement with the Red Cross, Where 10% of the proceeds go to the Philippines to help families affected by the Typhoon. I have less than 20 days to reach my funding goal and need all the help and support I can get.

It was an excellent meetup. I thought the topic was very timely, especially since I plan on lanuching my campaign at the end of the month.
