Chapter Chapter 2 in Investors’ Preferences in Financing New Ventures, 2023, pp 9-30 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract This section lays the ground and reviews the literature upon which the work draws. On one hand, the theoretical background is based on the entrepreneurial finance pillar, which studies the FinTech environment and, in particular, the crowdfunding phenomenon. On the other hand, the framework comprises theories about information asymmetry and signalling. The intersection of the two leads to the literature on the crowd-investors’ preferences and drivers for conducting a successful equity crowdfunding campaign. The section ends with the development of the research question and hypotheses.
