Now, thanks to a vocal group of citizens, ordinary citizens will be able to invest a small and affordable amount of money in a company they believe in and in exchange receive an ownership stake. This revolutionary change is called equity crowdfunding, and hundreds of websites called ‘funding portals’ — sites like CircleUp and RockThePost, to name two — are popping up to help match startup companies with potential investors like you.”
