Unternehmensgründungen und Crowdinvesting

Abstract

Innovativen Wachstumsunternehmen steht mit dem Crowdinvesting in Deutschland seit 2011 eine neuartige Finanzierungsmethode zur Verfügung. Hierbei versuchen die meist jungen Unternehmen durch einen gezielten öffentlichen Aufruf eine breite Masse privater Investoren anzusprechen. Basierend auf einer umfangreichen Datenbank sowie einer Unternehmensbefragung zeigen wir erste Entwicklungslinien eines im Wachstum begriffenen Marktes auf. Dabei wird deutlich, dass Unternehmer sich im Vorfeld bewusst für das Crowdinvesting entscheiden, obwohl ihnen Alternativen zur Verfügung stehen. Allgemein harmoniert die Finanzierungsform dabei mit etablierten Arten der Frühphasenfinanzierung. Zudem ist festzustellen, dass die Bestandsfestigkeit der Unternehmen zwar oberhalb des Bundesdurchschnitts liegt, die zum Finanzierungszeitpunkt getroffenen Prognosen jedoch verfehlt werden.

Equity-crowdinvesting was launched in Germany in the year 2011. This funding source enables young and emerging businesses to gather financial means by addressing numerous private investors via an open-call. Our examination of 163 funding rounds reveals that the German crowdinvesting market sharply increased in the first years. Most entrepreneurs rely on crowdinvesting despite alternative funding sources, which suggests that the decision for crowdinvesting is voluntary. Often crowdfunded ventures have professional investors prior to their funding campaign, which suggests that crowdinvesting matches with established financial sources. In the short-run, the proportion of businesses that fail is comparatively small. Firms mostly fail to stick to the financial objectives, which are published at the time of the crowdinvesting campaign.
