How will these platforms work to help entrepreneurs raise capital while protecting investors? How do startups use crowdfunding currently?  How would startups and startup investors like to use crowdfunding in the future? What about fraud? Experts on crowdfunding and advocates for reform legislation will answer questions about this transformative approach for raising capital.
