Crowdfunding and youth.

Summary Crowdfunding and young people Towards an understanding of the "young crowd" This study aims to gain a better understanding of the practices of young people in order to grasp their knowledge and behavior with regard to crowdfunding. The sample includes 435 students (average age 23.5). The study reveals three profiles: "active crowdfunders", "potential crowdfunders" and "uninterested". The results also highlight strong gender differences. Thus, students show a greater interest in entrepreneurial projects, while female students are more sensitive to the financing of humanitarian and civil actions.
