Phundee and Rich Mix will launch a competition ‘Crowdfund East London’ in order to help fund artists and the creative community.
East London is the heart beat of the creativity in London, Rich mix is a hub for real artists from diverse back grounds, Phundee is the go to platform that supports entertainment and art.
We plan to launch a group venture in trying to find the hottest 25 creative projects in London in four key areas – music, film, art and theatre.
In order to support that idea, Phundee will hold a 6 weeks training course at Google campus on how to have a successful campaign worth £600. We will also help with the marketing and PR for your campaign with the opportunity to promote your campaigns via our PR database across national news outlets worth thousands of pounds.
This event is open to anyone who has a defined idea that they would like to get off the ground and funded. Additionally, people can use this opportunity to come along, learn more about crowdfunding and hear the wonderful inspirational stories from people whom have completed successful campaigns on the day. We would like for people to present their ideas in front of the audience and a panel so they can be judged and accepted.
The event will be held at Rich Mix on 1.8.15 12.00-2.30pm.
