    Why Has Kickstarter Become a Benefit Corporation?

    by Cristina » Mon Feb 01, 2016 12:01 am

    Kickstarter is a big name in the rewards crowdfunding industry. As of 2015, Kickstarter has enabled over 92,000 projects to raise more than $1.9 billion on their platform. On September 21 2015, Kickstarter announced that they will no longer be known as Kickstarter Inc – from now on they are Kickstarter PBC (which stands for Public Benefit Corporation).

    You might be asking yourself, “What is a Public Benefit Corporation?” or “Why is that such a great thing?” In this post I explain what a Benefit Corporation is and what this means in the context of Kickstarter’s overall mission.
