INNOVATIVE PROJECTS
CORPORATE CROWDSOURCING FOR EFFICIENCY AND INNOVATION
§ I t ’s easy for large organizations to fall into silo thinking
§ When a corporate team wants to execute a project, such as implementing a system, it rarely thinks about collaborating with other global teams or areas
§ Duplicate projects and lack of collaborative working leads to wasted capital, time and more importantly stagnation in innovation
§ Collaborative efforts can minimize development costs and help drive innovative solution by sharing diverse experiences, expertise and resources
Team put up project on the corporate crowd plaDorm, to see if others want to do something similar or have already done a similar project
Project marketed on corporate intranet, so teams with similar needs can “invest“ with their cost-‐centers to share costs and benefits
Project can be developed efficiently and effecSvely and shared across teams, minimizing development and operaSng risks and costs

§ Debt based P2P lending is the fastest growing crowdfunding market with average annual growth of 113% for consumer and 272% for business lending
§ Lending volumes in 2014 were Euro275M for consumer and Euro93M for business lending
§ Indian market is in early stages, and while direct business loans are challenging due to pending regulation, consumer lending is open to development
§ Faircent launched with a basic platform in July 2014, and has recently raised VC capital at an enterprise valuation of US$4million, and there’s only one other key player called I-Lend
§ Crowdaura is working with partners to launch an innovative P2P network in India

§ Islamic finance operates by providing loans based on a leasing structure, so assets are purchased by the lender and leased to the borrower until the asset value plus a premium is paid off
§ Islamic finance is an asset backed lending structure and is safer than most lending formats, as recovery of assets is possible under default
§ Currently there is only one Islamic Finance P2P network in the middle east, with the European Islamic community underserved in this space
§ This asset backed structure would potentially result in lower costs for borrowers and safer returns for leasers, so this market has wider appeal
§ Crowdaura is currently working on developing this opportunity in the UK market for professionals who need to finance business assets
