Raising money for start-ups, what policy support, is the US rigth?

Submitted by miguel.gonzalez... on Thu, 2012-04-12 07:44

I just read this interesting news:
"Crowdfunding bill backed by US House of Representatives" http://www.bbc.com/news/technology-17535660

That's rigth, the US Congress has overwhelmingly voted the "Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (Jobs)", which would help firms to "crowdfund" capital from small investors.

- Are there similar initiatives in European countries?
- What should be done at EU level on start-up financing?
