CeeD have partnered with Crowdcube and Crover Limited to take a look at Equity Crowdfunding to ask if it is a realistic alternative to traditional funding routes for R&D investment and business growth. You can read more in our recent article here.

Crowdcube is one of the first UK investment crowdfunding platforms and Crover Limited is an Edinburgh company developing a robotic device to verify the integrity of stored grain.

Having recently announced that it had exceeded its £150,000 crowdfunding target - with £179,500 raised so far from 309 investors at a pre-money valuation of £2.5 million - Crover will use the new finance to begin small series manufacturing, with the aim of establishing additional pilots in the UK, Europe and the USA.

At this information session, Dr Lorenzo Conti, Founder and Managing Director of Crover Ltd, will share how he conceived the company’s robot technology for locomotion in bulk solids, in order to reduce grain loss during long-term storage, by mapping conditions inside grain stores.

We're also delighted to have Pete Gwilt, Equity Campaign Manager, Crowdcube join this event. Pete will share some more examples of manufacturing companies that have benefited from choosing the Crowdfunding route for investment.

 

Although by presenting this webinar CeeD does not specifically intend to represent Crover Ltd to potential investors nor does it intend to imply or represent through this webinar the suitability of the Crowdcube platform for potential investors, Crowdcube have asked CeeD to include a risk warning “Capital at Risk” on this site during the period whilst Crover is raising investment on the Crowdcube platform.
