Kickstarter
Kickstarter is the world's largest crowdfunding platform, enabling creators to bring creative projects to life through community funding. Founded in 2009 by Perry Chen, Yancey Strickler, and Charles Adler, the Brooklyn-based company has helped fund hundreds of thousands of projects across categories including film, music, art, technology, design, games, and publishing.
How It Works
Kickstarter operates on an all-or-nothing funding model:
- Creators set a funding goal and deadline
- Backers pledge money to support projects they believe in
- If the goal is reached, backers are charged and the project proceeds
- If the goal isn't met, no money changes hands
The platform has facilitated over $8 billion in pledges to creative projects, with millions of backers worldwide.
Company Status
Kickstarter became a Public Benefit Corporation in 2015, legally committing to consider the impact of decisions on society, not just shareholders. The company is headquartered in Brooklyn, New York.
