In collaboration with Throw us, pioneers of crowdfunding in Spain, and with the patronage of Banco Santander, through Santander Universities, RedEmprendia has created an online platform where university students can get financial resources to bring your ideas to life, adding small contributions from interested people to whom they must offer a reward in return.

RedEmprendia Crowdfunding is open to any entrepreneurial, technological, cultural, social, environmental initiative, etc. promoted by students, researchers, professors or graduates -from the year 2012- of Ibero-American universities.

Just for signing up RedEmprendia Crowdfunding y submit a project, university entrepreneurs will receive free advice to design and launch your crowdfunding campaign. In addition, those ideas that are innovative and based on scientific or technological knowledge may be distinguished with the seal PIBU (Innovative Project of University Base), with which they will access a series of added benefits:

  • Visibility. All the initiatives that have the PIBU seal will be announced through the RedEmprendia website and social media channels.
  • Financing. RedEmprendia will contribute up to an additional 2.000 euros for the three most successful crowdfunding campaigns that have achieved the PIBU seal.
