France
Crowdbooks is a startup based in France that aims to empower individuals to create, publish, and sell books. The company, founded in 2016, stands out as the first-of-its-kind crowdfunding option that shepherds an idea from inception to publication. While the concept of crowdfunding is not unique, Crowdbooks introduces a new element to this model by assisting projects through all stages of the publishing process, a departure from other platforms that typically disengage once funds are secured.
In October 2017, Crowdbooks received a €50.00K investment in a Seed Round from Nana Bianca, signifying early support for its innovative approach. The company's model, which combines the expertise of large publishing firms with the dedication of individual artists, is designed to help find a talented team focused on the success of each book project.
By offering a comprehensive suite of services that extend beyond funding, Crowdbooks positions itself as a valuable ally for aspiring authors and creators in the E-Commerce and Publishing industries. Through its unique approach, the company has the potential to disrupt and democratize the traditional publishing landscape, providing opportunities for a more diverse range of voices and stories to be heard.
