Abstract

In order to assess how public authorities and crowdfunding platforms can
collabo-rate, it is essential to understand the different levels of maturity of the
Crowdfunding ecosystem. The chapter analyses concepts developed in the
crowdfunding literature. It establishes a unified framework to understand the
increasing complexity of crowdfunding industries, by discussing the
conceptual framework of Crowdfunding success. It proceeds to describe
several models of maturity of industries by applying entrepreneurial ecosystem
theory to the alternative finance space. Lastly, it transfers entrepreneurial
ecosystem theory to the alternative finance regulation and the four scenarios of
fitting crowdfunding and alternative finance into existing regulation.
