NextSeed Crowdfunding: Out of 21 Successful Reg CF Offers, 13 are Food Related – Crowdfund Insider

NextSeed, a Reg CF crowdfunding platform based in Austin, Texas, has successfully funded every issuer it has listed on its platform. As far as we know, there are only two other Reg CF platforms that can claim the 100% funded claim today. NextSeed is a debt-based crowdfunding platform and does not list issuers raising capital by selling shares in their company. Founded by CEO Youngro Lee, NextSeed was recentlydescribed by Lee as a community-driven small business fundraising platform utilizing crowdfunding laws.

In a quick review of the crowdfunding platform there is a clear leaning in the type of campaigns that are being listed. NextSeed is ratcheting up the funding rounds in the Food and Beverage category.

To date, out of 21 successful crowdfunding rounds, 13 are food and beverage related. If you look at the amount raised, $2,982,000 has gone into food & beverage and $1,124,100 into everything else.

The successful food & beverage related Reg CF campaigns are as follows:

The non Food & Beverage related crowdfunding rounds are below:

And what about currently live crowdfunding campaigns? The food and beverage theme continues with three live food and beverage crowdfunding offers:

The only non-food and beverage live offer is IgnitedStudios, an LA based co-working space.

A couple of observations. First, Reg CF clearly appeals to a consumer facing offer where investors have an affinity to, or interest in, the business. Naturally, food and beverage related issuers are a match. The next observation is that the offers on NextSeed started small but have progressively gotten larger. I wonder how soon they will start hitting the $1.07M ceiling?

As NextSeed continues to hone its service and expand its reach it will be interesting to see how this community driven funding platform evolves.
