With a proven track record—over $66 million in lifetime revenue and more than $800 million paid to creators since 2012—BackerKit has consistently demonstrated robust growth and a deep commitment to the creative community. The platform’s impressive 2x year-over-year growth highlights its ability to adapt and thrive in an ever-changing market, while its innovative solutions streamline campaign management and post-campaign support for both creators and investors.

Moreover, the leadership team, including visionary figures like Maxwell Salzberg, Rosanna Yau, and Alex Cavoulacos, brings a unique blend of experience, passion, and strategic insight that instills confidence in the company’s future. Their dedication to excellence and continuous innovation has already redefined what is possible in the crowdfunding space. I am excited to support BackerKit as a Lead Investor, not only for its financial performance but also for its commitment to driving meaningful change in the way creative projects come to life. This opportunity aligns perfectly with my belief in investing in companies that make a positive impact, and I look forward to contributing to BackerKit’s continued success.","company":"BackerKit","date":"2025-02-20T19:44:23.408Z","url":"https://wefunder.com/backerkit","logo":"//uploads.wefunder.com/uploads/company/logo/166029/medium_blob.jpeg"},{"personalMessage":"A great team, product, traction.
