“Our mission is to educate entrepreneurs about the importance of protecting intellectual property,” said Mary Juetten, founder and CEO of Traklight. “Growing use of crowdfunding by artists, writers and companies who put their most valuable assets, which is all IP, online to raise capital are at great risk. Working with the education-minded partners like Indiegogo and Crowdnetic, we are able to empower innovators and help them protect their passions and ideas while seeking funding alternatives.”
“As the new regulatory framework for crowdfinance unfolds, it is imperative that both issuers as well as investors are properly prepared,” said Dara Albright, chief strategy officer of Crowdnetic. “Issuers of private stock must learn how to balance protecting their IP while providing the appropriate disclosures for investors to make informed decisions. At the same time, we must encourage investors to seek that crucial information as well as educate them on proven due diligence techniques. If we can successfully achieve both, crowdfinance has the potential to foster economic prosperity for generations to come.”
