TimeRepublik launches “Time Funding”

The Italian way to support startup with time instead of money

TimeRepublik, the first world time bank, has just launched a new initiative called "TimeFunding". The basic idea is to help new businesses to start up, financing them through time instead of money.

By means of TimeRepublik's widget installed on the company's website, the administrators will be able to invite other people to donate just by "clicking". This practice would collect time -credits, which can be spent as money within TimeRepublik's community. The latter includes professionals from 370 different areas of expertise.

This project stands as a true example of crowdfunding under the umbrella of a 'shared economy', which will hopefully be a model for the nearest future.

Amo l'Asia in (quasi) tutte le sue sfaccettature, ecco perché cerco di trascorrerci più tempo possibile. Dopo aver lavorato per anni come ricercatrice a New Delhi e Hong Kong, per qualche anno osserverò l'Oriente dalla quella che è considerata essere la città più vivibile del mondo: Melbourne. Insegno Culture and Business Practice in Asia ad RMIT University,  Asia and the World a The University of Melbourne e mi occupo di India per il Centro Militare di Studi Strategici di Roma.
