The potential for crowdfunding, as defined in the JOBS Act, to fundamentally change the nature of capital formation is tremendous, potentially opening up avenues to investment and borrowing that were previously only available to a small segment of the investing community, let along the general public. And one sector that could see truly revolutionary change is health care.
Greg Simon is the CEO of Poliwogg, a crowdfunding site committed to funding early-stage health care companies. Prior to working at Poliwogg, he held senior positions in both houses of congress, acted as a strategy consultant to tech CEOs, and co-founded a patient advocacy non-profit. He talked with Equities.com about how the JOBS Act, crowdfunding, and Poliwogg could bring a new class of investors to the health care industry and help fund a new generation of novel therapies in the process.
