On September 23, 2013 Title II of the JOBS Act lifted the ban on general solicitation by startups. Startups are now allowed to solicit their offerings. Simultaneously, there has been an explosion of innovation in entrepreneurial finance, e.g., seeComparison of Crowd Funding Services.
Among these disruptive innovations is Seed Change. Seed Change provisions investment access to curated tech startups. Seed Change will be introduced by your host Kevin Smith, Esq., founder & CEO. Kevin will be accompanied by his co-founder Nate Phillips.
