Bangkok, June 2016 - the first crowdfunding platform curated for Thailand is joining forces with Bangkok’s hottest co-working space to inspire the city’s innovators and makers to get their ideas off the ground. Crowdfunding 101 is a series of workshops by Team Asiola at HUBBA venues, in which they aim to introduce the concept of crowdfunding to those who might benefit from it.

“Get Funded” - the first free session of the series - aims to unlock the secrets to what makes a successful campaign. Co-founder Jon Lor will break down the basics and mechanics of various crowdfunding models, followed by Tipswad "Tippy" Asvanon and Kiratra "Ki" Promsaka - Asiola's resident campaign managers, who will discuss the winning formula. Using local and international case studies, the team will present the key components of successful campaigns that attract financial support.

Jon Lor says, "We're happy to introduce our first instalment in the Crowdfunding 101 series and our partnership with HUBBA, to help entrepreneurs learn about how crowdfunding can help fund their ideas. We see crowdfunding as a model to reverse the traditional methods of fundraising, and to help small businesses move into the market more quickly and (cost) efficiently."

The workshop takes place at HUBBA-TO in Onnut on 21 June 2016 and will be conducted primarily in English but Q&A sessions will be taken in English and Thai. For more information and tickets, see the Facebook event page.
