Fundraising and communication

In an entrepreneurship context, we had to collect funds to develop our project and we had to communicate on it in order to gain visibility and to catch people's attention.

The report we made deals with how we collected all the necessary funds to send 9 people to Boston and pay for the lab experiments.

It might be useful for future iGEM teams willing to collect a similar amount of money.



We raised around 16 000€ in different ways:




On social networks we published every week about our work, who we met (iGEM teams, professionals, winemakers, etc…) and also advertising our Kickstarter page and our team members. This allowed to share our project and progress to the world.



If you wish to know more about how we managed this amazing quest for funds, do not hesitate to read our Fundraising and Communication report dealing in details with all these different steps that we have taken.
