interests of all crowdfunding stakeholders in their geographic, economic or
political areas.
The WFC is founded by crowdfunding associations of the United States, Canada, Nigeria, Australia, Israel, India and Brazil in October 04, 2012.
Currently, the WCF includes 13 member organizations from around the world (see map).
