Social finance and crowdfunding for social enterprises: a public–private case study providing legitimacy and leverage (2014, background): “Despite this potential for social entrepreneurs, few academic articles exist so far that address CF in this context (Clarkin 2014; Lehner 2013; Frydrich, Bock, and Kinder 2014) – apart from a small stream focusing on donations (Firth 2012; Muller and Kräussl 2011).”

Crowdfunding: A Literature Review and Research Directions (2014, unknown): “The size of the capital seeker’s social network, the presence of a product video and geographical proximity to capital providers increase the likelihood of successful funding (Frydrych et al., 2014; Giudici et al., 2013; Hekman & Brussee, 2013; Mollick, 2014; Saxton & Wang, 2013).”
Strategies for reward-based crowdfunding campaigns (2016, background): “Furthermore, Frydrych et al. (2014) argue that information on the founder or the founding organization adds legitimacy to the project, attracting more funders as a result.”
The formation and interplay of social capital in crowdfunded social ventures (2014, background): “As Frydrich, Bock, and Kinder (2014) examine, the legitimacy of a venture, accumulated through interaction and co-creation between the founders and the crowd, can be seen as a strong signal, a symbol in the language of Bourdieu (1989), and acts as catalyst.”
Reward-based crowdfunding of entrepreneurial projects: the effect of local altruism and localized social capital on proponents’ success (2017, unknown): “These motives appear to be as important as strictly financial returns (Frydrych et al. 2014).”
