TORONTO, July 19, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — FrontFundr, Canada’s leading equity crowdfunding platform, is excited to announce it will represent Canada at 2022 Equity Crowdfunding Week, an international entrepreneurship and investment conference, this fall. Hosted by StartupStarter, 2022 Equity Crowdfunding Week is a three-day experiential event showcasing the most innovative companies raising capital in the private markets from the US, Canada and beyond.
Entrepreneurs and investors from around the globe will come together for the second annual event, taking place in Los Angeles from September 21–23, 2022. The immersive experience will have a strong focus on issuers actively raising capital and investors seeking the next unicorn while embracing the city of L.A.
“We look forward to representing Canada at 2022 Equity Crowdfunding Week,” said Peter-Paul Van Hoeken, Founder and CEO of FrontFundr. “As Canada’s leading equity crowdfunding platform, it’s important for us to be at the forefront of industry innovation. We’re excited to see the companies raising capital, connect with global industry experts and share our experience and lessons as well.”

It’s built a community of nearly 35,000 investors and is eager to take learnings from the conference to create an even better experience for its investors and issuers alike.

Additionally, the event is designed to increase investment opportunities for startups looking to learn more about launching an equity crowdfunding campaign and the future of retail investing.
“2022 Equity Crowdfunding Week is our answer to the economic downturn. As the world is bracing for impact and the financial markets are being shaken up, Equity Crowdfunding is uniquely positioned to highlight some of the most innovative companies in the private markets while helping thousands of entrepreneurs weather the storm.
