On May 16, 2016, small companies and startups were given new options to raise capital--as much as $1 million online from ordinary investors in a 12-month period. Until now, federal securities laws allowed only wealthy individuals, or so-called accredited investors, to participate in such offerings.

Our speakers for our first MeetUp on Sept 8 are New York City Business Development Advisor Jim West and Securities Attorney Alan Hawkins. https://www.meetup.com/Kentucky-Equity-Crowdfunding-Network/events/233099342/
