Adventure Capital is a podcast by Wefunder that explores the world of equity crowdfunding. Each episode is an interview with a startup founder who raised capital on Wefunder. From soccer clubs to satellites, from breweries to biotech, we discuss their entrepreneurial journeys, and their equity crowd…
The Adventure Capital: Equity Crowdfunding podcast is an incredible resource for both founders and investors looking to navigate the world of equity crowdfunding. I stumbled upon this podcast after finding a link in Persona, and I'm so glad I did. One of the best parts about this podcast is that you can binge listen to it, which is perfect for those who want to dive deep into the topic. Each episode provides valuable insights and success stories from past founders who have worked with WeFunder. Whether you're planning to launch a campaign or simply looking to learn more about equity crowdfunding, this podcast is a must-listen.
The episode featuring Max Tuchman from Caribu was particularly inspiring and encouraging. It prompted me to recommend WeFunder's Regulation CF to my friends who are minority founders. The stories shared on this podcast show that success is possible for everyone, regardless of their background. This inclusivity and support for underrepresented entrepreneurs make this podcast truly exceptional.
One minor critique of the podcast is that it does seem to be heavily geared towards founders rather than investors. While the tactical advice shared on each episode may not be as relevant or interesting for all listeners, it ultimately depends on one's goals for listening to the podcast. However, I would love to hear more founder stories like Klaus, who started a company that went public. These experiences provide valuable insights into the journey of building a successful business.
In conclusion, The Adventure Capital: Equity Crowdfunding podcast is an excellent initiative by Jonny and Katie. It offers invaluable information for anyone interested in working with WeFunder or launching an equity crowdfunding campaign. The interview format keeps things engaging, and the hosts' chemistry adds an extra layer of enjoyment throughout each episode. Additionally, this podcast serves as a great resource for those looking to gain a deeper understanding of the financial industry and learn from other entrepreneurs' experiences. I highly recommend giving it a listen and staying tuned for future episodes.
