Clemson University launched a new crowdfunding portal to finance projects by students today, making it the first S.C. school to do so.
The site, ClemsonIdeas.com, will be used to raise money for startup companies with a special focus on projects by students in Clemson’s Master of Business Administration program. The site is hosted by a third-party provider, and all of the funds raised will go directly to the person seeking support, according to a news release. Clemson will not receive any funding from the site, and it is not affiliated with any university giving program.
