International crowdfunding website Indiegogo is hosting a free workshop followed by a Q&A session and networking drinks in London this week.

Exploring how crowdfunding is much more than just raising funds, the event will lay out how a successful campaign can quickly move product from concept to market.

There will be advice from industry experts and a guest panel including Mat Hunter, managing director of Central Research Library; start-up and crowdfunding advisor Stuart Hillston; previous Indiegogo campaigner (Extreme Flyers/Microdrone) Vernon Kerswell; founder of Horizon International Cargo’s supply chain product manager Tony Leach; Joel Hughes, UK & Europe director of Indiegogo; and Blazon PR founder Michael Raven.

There will also be the chance to meet other seasoned campaigners who’ve successfully launched their products on Indiegogo.

BusinessCloud’s next event will investigate how tech has changed the face of PR and marketing.

Taking place this Thursday March 23rd, we will bring together some of the region’s biggest and best known PR and marketing specialists to find out how the art of storytelling has changed, and how the expectation of clients has risen.
