Ruth Hedges is from the early days of crowdfunding in the United States. Part of an original group of committed individuals who advocated on behalf of updating antiquated securities regulations, Hedges is a founding member of the Crowdfund Intermediary Regulatory Advocates (CFIRA); the group originally created to help push legislation across the line and legalize investment crowdfunding. Since the very beginning, Hedges has hosted an annual event aiming to connect the diverse sectors of securities crowdfunding, alongside non-securities funding platforms, and this year’s gathering is predicted to be the biggest yet. The Global Crowdfunding Convention (or GCC) kicks off in Las Vegas next week with many prominent names from this sector of finance.
