Abstract: Although the academic spotlight is on Civic Crowdfunding (CCF), which is a recent field of research, studies on the topic are still limited and fragmented. The interdisciplinary nature and the growth of scholarly production on CCF make it difficult to systematize the current literature. This study, by conducting a systematic literature review, aims to identify the areas of CCF on which researchers have focused their attention, hoping to bring clarity and advance the understanding of the topic. The analyses showed that academic research interest in the CCF has grown and is diversifying, but also that numerous areas still need to be explored in depth, among which, the most relevant concerns the role that this tool can play for SMEs. The review has a significant theoretical impact as it identifies the most relevant research topics and provides guidelines for future research activities.
