Funding Rounds
•  $15M – May 2014
•  $65M – Oct 2014
•  $250M – Dec 2014
Traction
•  Dominating
Southeast Asia’s
taxi app space in 2
years
•  2.5 million
downloads
•  3 taxi bookings
made every second
…but startup investing has been limited to
the top 1%
15	
  
1.  Access to deal flow of high quality startups is typically
limited to professional investors
2.  Regulations prohibit startups from advertising their
fundraising to the greater public
3.  Not everyone who has investable capital can invest in
startup due to minimum ticket size required
Platforms give investors a new
way to build a startup portfolio
Without an online platform,
building a portfolio is time
consuming
ECF will be a game changer for investors
16	
  
Easily make bite sized
investments in high quality
startups to diversify portfolio
Centralized sourcing platform
with transparent due diligence
process
Access to industry experts and
follow experienced co-investors
Need to build up reputation to
access competitive investments
Time consuming to find and
assess startups to invest in
Need extensive knowledge in
industry you are investing in
What’s the upside to startup investing?
Case Study: Rewalk
Equity Crowdfunding:
investors put in $3.39 M
for 5.4% ownership
Return: 300%-500% in
