It may not be rock and roll, but Grow VC is going to take to the road next month in the hope of recruiting a bunch of new crowdfunding fans.

From 9th-11th March the community-based platform dedicated to entrepreneurs and investors will be driving its tour bus round Austin, Texas to coincide with The South by Southwest® (SXSW®) Conferences & Festivals.

Then it’s off to Dallas for a media day, before arriving in LA for TSL’s Capital Creation and Crowdfunding Conference.

Spreading the Word

During their time on the road Grow VC will be doing interviews and handing out promotional items. The hope is that a minimum of 500,000 people will see the tour bus on its route, and learn about crowd funding start ups – what’s involved and the benefits for investor and nascent companies.

The bus will be very easy to recognise as it’ll be covered with a tour themed design wrap, and there will be a documentary crew on board charting the entire journey.

Grow VC views 2012 as a big year for crowdfunding. There’s the new crowdfunding bill and increased engagement by investors with the concept.

Some finer details about the tour are still being worked out, but you can keep up-to-date with progress at Grow VC’s blog.
