Since launching in September 2013, SyndicateRoom has raised ~£100 million for more than 100 companies (October 2017).[6] Notable companies that have raised on the platform include: Salty, the first-ever equity crowdfunded Hollywood film, directed by Simon West;[7] Mill Residential REIT, the world's first crowdfunded IPO; and Axol Biosciences, which uses Nobel Prize-winning technology to produce stem cells from human blood and skin cells that can then be turned into cells for scientific research, potentially removing the need for animal testing. Approximately a third of the companies that list on SyndicateRoom are from the life sciences industry,[8] an unusual statistic given that the vast majority of crowdfunded businesses are in the B2C (Business to Consumer) sector. Investor-led modelThe investor-led crowdfunding model differentiates itself from the usual company-led model by necessitating the participation of an experienced business angel in every round. This 'lead investor' conducts due diligence on the investment opportunity and negotiates the economic terms of the investment before contributing at least 25% of the round. The intended benefit is that any less experienced investors will 1) have the reassurance of knowing that an experienced investor has already assessed the round and 2) invest on the same economic terms as the lead investor. HistorySyndicateRoom was founded by Gonçalo de Vasconcelos (CEO) and Tom Britton (CTO) on 21 September 2013.[9] The pair met by chance at a networking event in Cambridge. Both de Vasconcelos and Britton studied at the Cambridge Judge Business School at the University of Cambridge where they were awarded their Master of Business Administration in 2010 and 2012 respectively. Awards
