CrowdRound aims to connect startups, investors, and mentors through its software platform and services. It currently operates APStartup in Hong Kong and China, which collates Asian startup funding deals. CrowdRound wants to develop offshore crowdfunding capabilities and license its private label software to different startup communities. It is raising $200,000 through a seed round to expand its team and operations in Belize to develop these crowdfunding capabilities. CrowdRound believes this will help startups crowdfund and connect investors with global investment opportunities.

21. Risks and pivots
Risk Factors Pivots
IT issues (as we choose to
outsource our IT instead of
develop in-house)
Went through this is Y1, bad IT meant poor
implementation. Had to completely re-write the
system and re-launch in y2
Security hacks Because we are using open source software we need
to be vigilant of security holes
Deal Quality of startups Only 30% of startups meet investment quality. We use
the platform as a dealflow system to filter out good
deals
Risk of deal closing Deal closing is a low probability business. We mitigate
this by focusing on quality deals and also a wider
investor network attracted onto the platform
Risk of deal circumvention This is not easy to protect as deals are not exclusive.
We protect only the leads we introduce to investors.
All deals we take on has a non-circumvention and
finders fee agreement signed. We use legal escrow for
completion of transactions.
