About CrowdFundMe
CrowdFundMe is one of Italy’s leading regulated crowdfunding and crowdinvesting platforms, authorised under Italian financial law and EU crowdfunding regulation. It enables both retail and institutional investors to access alternative investment opportunities beyond traditional financial markets, including equity stakes in startups and innovative SMEs, real estate-related crowdfunding, and debt instruments such as minibonds — all through a single online portal.
Investors can diversify their portfolios by participating in carefully selected campaigns with relatively low minimum commitments (often from around €250), gaining exposure to high-growth early-stage companies, real estate projects, and fixed-income-like corporate debt. The platform emphasises due diligence and provides tools and support throughout the investment process.

Useful Information
CrowdFundMe is authorized by Consob, the Italian Companies and Exchange Commission. In the event of its closure, the regulatory requirements would ensure the protection of investors' interests.
Companies choose CrowdFundMe for its diverse financial products and the support it provides throughout the fundraising process. The platform offers various tools for businesses to finance themselves, supported by a team of experts. CrowdFundMe carries out a thorough due diligence process, with only about 6% of the candidates managing to publish their campaign on the portal. This rigorous process ensures that only viable projects are listed on the platform.
CrowdFundMe primarily offers equity investments in startups and SMEs, real estate crowdfunding (both equity and debt), and minibonds for SMEs. These investments allow investors to gain equity stakes, participate in real estate projects, or invest in SME bonds, providing diverse opportunities to suit different risk appetites and investment goals.
Investing on CrowdFundMe involves typical risks associated with crowdfunding, such as potential loss of capital and lack of liquidity. Equity investments in startups carry risks like product development failure, market fit issues, and valuation challenges. Real estate investments may face market volatility and project delays, while minibonds could default or undergo restructuring.
