Colin was recently interviewed by Victoria Silchenko of Metropole Capital for his perspective on the next generation of entrepreneurship, including the advent and propagation of crowdfunding. As quoted in the news release: “New tech-driven networking platforms are quickly ushering in this next generation of entrepreneurs and investors, according to Colin Mangham, CEO & Founder of Daily Brand Group, a leading innovation consultancy. ‘We’re seeing a lot more of these participatory funding models … people voting with their wallets for companies they believe in, similar to how you might ‘like’ something on Facebook, and almost as easy to do,’ said Mangham. ‘This is opening up opportunities on both sides of the transaction to a broader and often impassioned audience, especially for impact investments in which performance is measured not just financially but also as a function of societal impact.’
