Match-funding with the Crowd: Blending Crowdfunding and ESIF to Amplify Results – Brussels

The reduction in public budgets, the increasing importance of blending schemes in the future European funding landscape, and the consolidation of civic crowdfunding practices are strong signals that a new model for the way public authorities and citizens respond to local and regional challenges is needed. The aim of the workshop is to present best practices on how to implement match-funding mechanisms i.e. by combining crowdfunding with other sources of public funding and to highlight the potential of such mechanisms when framed as blending schemes for the allocation of ESIF grants (more information provided by ECN)
