GİRİŞİMCİLER İÇİN KİTLESEL FONLAMA İLE İŞ FIRSATLARI GELİŞTİRİLMESİ: EUROVELO VE KICKSTARTER ÖRNEKLERİ

Year 2023, Volume: 7 Issue: 7, 35 - 47, 03.01.2024

Abstract

Tüketicilere fayda sağlayan ve iş yapma biçimlerini kolaylaştıran ürün ya da hizmetleri geliştiren girişimciler, finansman desteğine ihtiyaç duymaktadır. Günümüzde birçok kurum, kuruluş ve platform girişimcilere destek olmaktadır. Özellikle son on yılda kitlesel fonlama; girişimciler tarafından tercih edilen bir finansman desteği olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Bireyler sağlıklı yaşam ve çevreye duyarlılık gibi sebeplerle bisiklet kullanmaya yönelmektedir. Bu yönelim; güçlü bir değer önerisi ile geliştirilmiş bir fayda sunan, yenilikçi, teknolojik ve dijital ürünler geliştirilmesi ile girişimcilere iş fırsatları yaratabilmektedir. Girişimcilerin; bisiklet kullanıcılarına yönelik geliştirilebilecekleri iş fikirleri ve bu iş fikirlerinin iş fırsatına dönüştürülmesinde kitlesel fonlamanın yarattığı fırsatların belirlenmesi araştırma sorusu olarak belirlenmiştir. Çalışmada bisiklet kullanıcılarına yönelik bir platformu olan EuroVelo ve hayata geçirdikleri proje ve iyi uygulama örneklerine yer verilmektedir. Bunun yanı sıra Kickstarter kitlesel fonlama platformunda yer alan bisiklet kullanıcılarına yönelik projelere değinilmiştir. Hem EuroVelo hem de Kisckstarter’da yer alan başarılı örnekler; girişimciler için iş fırsat alanı olduğunu göstermektedir. Bu örneklerden hareketle iş fikirleri çalışmada öneri olarak sunulmaktadır. Girişimciler için yeni fırsatların önü açılıyorken, bisiklet kullanıcıları için ise yenilikçi ürün ve hizmetlerin güvenlik, konfor ve kolaylık sağlaması farklı rotaların keşfedilmesine imkân sağlayabilecektir. Aynı zamanda keşfedecekleri rotalarda yer alan şehirlerde alabilecekleri hizmetler ile şehirlerin ekonomik kalkınmasına da destek olabileceklerdir.
