Ryan Ouellette, of the Cleveland Council on World Affairs, believes the arrangement can build on Cleveland’s reputation as a growing city.

“This program is a great opportunity to showcase Cleveland to the world. By sharing best practices in business development, as well as our culture and values, we’re building lasting personal and professional relationships,” said Ouellette.

The group visited regional incubator Flashstarts in downtown Cleveland, where they were given a presentation about startup accelerators.

“The group from Belarus is extremely interested in new forms of capital raising that are sprouting up in the US and how they can be emulated in Belarus.  While crowdfunding is spreading capital formation across the United States, the bigger picture – the one I’m more excited about – is the democratization of capital formation across the globe.” said Rodman. 

Crowdentials was chosen to be part of the program because of the company’s heavy involvement with the JOBS Act, crowdfunding industry and capital formation generally.
