Episode Synopsis

Jonny Price has spent most of his working life in the world of microfinance, first at the nonprofit, Kiva, and now with the crowdfunding platform, Wefunder. He started his journey from management consultant to crowdfunding guru in 2009, as a volunteer with Kiva, on an externship from his consulting job. He made the full leap over in 2011, to lead the Kiva Zip pilot project, which later became Kiva U.S. And a couple of years ago, he transitioned to Wefunder, a crowdfunding platform where everyone over the age of 18 can invest as little as $100.  Kiva and Wefunder have a common theme for Jonny – they are aimed at  "financially excluded and socially impactful businesses." He talks about the "crazy gap" between bank loans for established businesses, and venture capital for a select few.
