Startup Science has launched a Regulation Crowdfunding campaign on WeFunder, allowing founders and supporters to become stakeholders in its platform. The company has previously raised $5.75 million from management and strategic investors. The San Diego-based platform currently supports over 88,000 founders and 200 entrepreneur support organisations across four continents. It connects founders with education, mentors, accelerators and investors through AI-matched support networks, partnering with organisations including the Angel Capital Association and National Black Chamber of Commerce. "By investing in this round, founders are not just users of the platform; they're co-owners in an ecosystem built to help them succeed," said founder and CEO Gregory Shepard. The campaign runs for a limited time exclusively on WeFunder.

RISE Robotics has been named the number one Regulation Crowdfunding campaign of 2025 by Kingscrowd, raising over $5.3 million from more than 2,200 investors. The company develops Beltdraulic, a fluid-free electric actuation system for heavy machinery. RISE ranked first among over 1,000 Reg CF campaigns nationwide, making it the largest such raise in the US in 2025. Only nine companies reached the $5 million cap under Regulation Crowdfunding last year. The Somerville-based startup achieved several milestones in 2025, including earning a Guinness World Record for the world's strongest robotic arm prototype, securing contracts with the US Army and Air Force worth $3 million, and delivering its first commercial cylinder. The company is raising on Wefunder platform.

Label 51 Recordings has launched a $1 million Regulation Crowdfunding campaign on Wefunder, allowing fans to invest directly in the independent music label. Founded by industry veteran Andy Zicklin and Enigma Records co-founder Bill Hein, the label represents approximately 30 acts across various genres, including established artists Deep Blue Something and Wall of Voodoo, alongside emerging talent. The campaign positions Label 51 amongst the first independent record labels to pursue equity crowdfunding. Funds will primarily support marketing, promotion, touring and recording for the label's diverse roster. Early investors gain access to exclusive perks including signed vinyl and artist meet-and-greets. The label aims to create a fan-owned model where investors become stakeholders and ambassadors, offering artists wider reach whilst maintaining creative independence in an industry where streaming pays minimal royalties.
