Neufund ICO page — launching very soon :)

At Neufund we are a team of tech founders, with history of raising multiple venture capital rounds, and both great failures and exits in our careers. We are technologists and technocrats, who started coding before C++ was even invented, and who embraced waves of technological progress — starting from irc, gopher and usenet, through dotcom bubble, www, and now Blockchain — taking them not only as a technical advancement, but as a necessary (r)evolutionary development of human interactions. We are VCs who have supported startups and ambitious idealists ever since the Internet was born. We also are managers, who have both built lean companies and run NASDAQ-listed enterprises. But first and foremost we are creators.

We are inventors and entrepreneurs, who believe firmly, that innovating, building and contributing is the only priority of our generation, and that the right to create is inherent to all human beings, whatever their nationality, place of residence or financial status.

Since January of this year, we’ve been working on a new way to fund ventures — hence the name Neufund — a project started with the mission to open innovation for good. Our goal is to remove unnecessary barriers that prevent the alliance of inventors and investors, including geographical and jurisdictional constraints. We seek transparency, trustless-trust and a direct alliance of founders with those who believe in their success.

Today, investing capital through traditional channels still is unnecessarily difficult and expensive, requiring voluminous paperwork, high broker fees, and a dependence on a variety of intermediaries. Laws are designed to protect investors; however, with the vast scope and subtleties of financial regulations, novice investors find themselves excluded from many opportunities, thus depriving all of us of the impact that the entrepreneurs supported by their capital might create. Blockchain and ICOs bring the necessary change. Recently more and more tech founders have been raising millions of dollars to fund their ideas, not from large VC funds, but directly from those who want to support them — from the members of the cryptocommunity. The ICOs, however, are largely reserved to Blockchain-based projects. This means they’re available only to crypto-natives who already own and know how to handle Bitcoin, Ether, and other cryptocurrencies.

Our platform opens up the ICO mechanism to ventures beyond the borders of the crypto-world. Any company, startup, and regular private individual interested in supporting an idea can soon go ahead and invest in the ventures they support.
