Abstract

This chapter presents the results of the conducted qualitative research in combination with a small quantitative study about the impacts of Crowdfunding on the entrepreneurial innovation process. While the main focus of this research involves interviews with successful hardware-Crowdfunding campaigns and experts in the field of Crowdfunding, statistical campaign performance data serves as a supplementary source of evidence. In order to illustrate the qualitative data in a meaningful way, the analysis is split into sub-themes according to the key issues derived from the literature review. These sub-themes allow reporting, analysing and synthesising the gathered empirical data, collected through the interviews within a set context of the Crowdfunding phenomenon (see chapter 2). This chapter is concluded by a brief summary of the main findings that serves as the foundation for the conclusions and discussion about Crowdfunding's wider economic implication in chapter six.
