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. 410 0$aSIDREA Series in Accounting and Business Administration,$x2662-9887 606 $aNew business enterprises$xFinance 606 $aBusiness enterprises$xFinance 606 $aAccounting 606 $aCapital market 606 $aEntrepreneurial Finance 606 $aCorporate Finance 606 $aAccounting 606 $aCapital Markets 615 0$aNew business enterprises$xFinance. 615 0$aBusiness enterprises$xFinance. 615 0$aAccounting. 615 0$aCapital market. 615 14$aEntrepreneurial Finance. 615 24$aCorporate Finance. 615 24$aAccounting. 615 24$aCapital Markets. 676 $a658.421 676 $a658.15 700 $aModaffari$b Giuseppe$01726319 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910838278703321 996 $aEquity Crowdfunding for SMEs$94132040 997 $aUNINA
