Abstract

(VF)Le crowdfunding apparaît de plus en plus comme une source alternative de financement. Même s’il ne représente qu’une faible part du financement de l’économie, sa progression est fulgurante. L’originalité de l’Equity-Crowdfunding (ECF) est de permettre à la foule de participer à une aventure entrepreneuriale en devenant actionnaire. Notre question de recherche est relative aux mécanismes de gouvernance actionnés par les plateformes d’ECF pour gérer la relation « foule-porteur de projet », lors des phases de pre et post-investissement. Grâce à une étude qualitative portant sur six plateformes françaises d’ECF, nous mettons en évidence et expliquons le recours à un ensemble de mécanismes de gouvernance cognitifs et disciplinaires.(VA)Crowdfunding appears more and more as an alternative form of financing. Even if it currently represents a small part of the financing of economy, its growth is massive. The originality of Equity-CrowdFunding (ECF) is to allow the crowd to participate in an entrepreneurial adventure and of becoming a shareholder. Our research issue concerns the mechanisms of governance activated by the platform of ECF to manage the relation between this crowd and the project leader, during the phases of pre and post-investment. Thanks to a qualitative study concerning six French ECF platforms, we highlight and explain several cognitive and disciplinary mechanisms.
