Trial & Error: Crowdfunding and Crowdfinding in Slovenia
Vienna Design Week 2015
25.9.-2.10.2015
Most of the crowdfunding exhibitions focus on presenting perfected products you can already get in a store. We tried to go beyond that and show the complexity of the development process, the difficulties in the back end, all the failed prototypes and other interesting experiences 5 creators of the selected projects experienced after they successfully raised funds with their Kickstarter campaigns.
This is the story of a group of young Slovenian designers who found a global community of supporters to realize their creative potential. It is a story of empowerment within a small, local, creative community. A community that has proved the viability of an alternative model; so that other Slovenian creatives can bring their interesting project ideas to life too.
