Following the success of its recent self-running crowdfunding campaign, Crowdcube announced it now officially has 300,000 members on its funding portal.
The website confirmed on Friday:
“We’re excited to announce that our 300,000th member has joined Crowdcube. Our ever-growing crowd of everyday, sophisticated and high net worths’ have collectively invested £182m on Crowdcube to date in a true demonstration of the power of the crowd.”
Crowdcube then revealed, to date, there have been 435 raises that have been financed on its crowdfunding site. Its team recently stated:
“Crowdcube has played a key role in cementing Britain’s position as a global fintech leader, and this shows that investors’ appetite for backing ambitious British businesses seeking growth capital remains as strong as ever. We’ve shown that ambitious later-stage British businesses can raise serious amounts of growth capital on Crowdcube. Our record-breaking £8 million raise, which is the 41st fundraise over £1 million in our history, is yet another watershed moment that will help us execute our plans to pioneer secondary liquidity for investors, whilst facilitating larger rounds to fund the growth of Britain’s ambitious businesses. As we embark on Crowdcube’s next stage of growth we’re excited for the future and pleased to have 3,700 new investors join us on the journey.”
