Crowdfundme S.p.A.

CrowdFundMe is one of the leading Italian Crowdinvesting platforms (Equity Crowdfunding, Real Estate Crowdfunding and Corporate Debt) and is the first portal to be listed in the history of Piazza Affari (March 2019). The company, now an Innovative SME based in Milan, was founded in 2013. The year of full market operation, however, is 2016. The portal offers the opportunity to invest in unlisted companies, carefully selected from those with the greatest growth potential. Investors, both retail and institutional, thus have the opportunity to diversify their portfolio by investing in unlisted assets.
CrowdFundMe, as of May 2020, has been authorised by Consob to place mini-bonds, thus being able to also offer fixed-income instruments. The company also entered the register of listing sponsors of ExtraMOT Pro3, the bond segment of Borsa Italiana dedicated to unlisted companies for issues of up to EUR 50 million each. CrowdFundMe can therefore not only issue bonds (primary market) but also list them and follow the issuer throughout the life of the instrument (secondary market). The portal has thus entered a new market with great potential (over EUR 7 billion cumulative to 2020, of which EUR 2.5 billion raised by SMEs - source: 7th Italian report on mini-bonds by Politecnico di Milano). Finally, CrowdFundMe can publish Equity Crowdfunding campaigns preparatory to subsequent stock market listings of the issuers concerned.
