Scholars identify difficulties in the financial sphere as the main causes of SME mortality. Such problems do not allow them to reach sustainable growth. It thus becomes critical to have the best knowledge of innovative financial tools to overcome financial constraints. By exploring the origin of financial needs, the book aims to observe how innovative equity-side financing tools, particularly equity crowdfunding, contribute to the SME dimension. The work outlines the main development factors, observing equity-crowdfunding’s effect on the rate at which SMEs reach sustainable total development (STD). Moreover, outlining the fundamentals of the main theories developed on financing choices, the work concludes with a systematic literature analysis on equity crowdfunding, highlighting the main features that currently increase scholars’ interest in the topic.SIDREA Series in Accounting and Business Administration,2662-9887New business enterprisesFinanceBusiness enterprisesFinanceAccountingCapital marketEntrepreneurial FinanceCorporate FinanceAccountingCapital MarketsNew business enterprisesFinance.Business enterprisesFinance.Accounting.Capital market.Entrepreneurial Finance.Corporate Finance.Accounting.Capital Markets.658.421658.15Modaffari Giuseppe1726319MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910838278703321Equity Crowdfunding for SMEs4132040UNINA
