About five years ago I set out to bring the principles of crowdfunding into university development departments. To be honest, it’s not vastly different from what fundraisers have always done: telling great stories. But for crowdfunding you have to tell the stories in such a way that alumni will internalise and then retell them. OK, there’s some technology involved too! And that’s how I got into this. My degree was in computer science, but I have been fundraising ever since I can remember. When you look at it that way, I was never going to do anything else…
