FundedByMe scales up with new employees on board

Hiring new staff is the next strategic decision taken by the company in recent times. In February FundedByMe launched loan-based crowdfunding and in April it started the pilot program for Bitcoin investors.

- We constantly analyse what’s going on in the crowdfunding market and try to identify newly born trends and needs. We have noticed that generally speaking platforms lack of professional business client support. On the other hand the market is quite fragmented and customers look for more comprehensive services. These two observations encouraged us for further improvements at FundedByMe – explains Daboczy.

In recent times FundedByMe hired professionals who are in charge for supporting business clients, coordinating partnerships and controlling finance aspects of the company’s daily operations.
