FREITAG

In spring 2016, FREITAG and wemakeit invited project initiators to present their ongoing campaigns at crowdfunding soirées in Zurich, Lausanne and Vienna. By delivering powerfully convincing presentations, the idea was to win over the audience and get its support. In an additional boost to their visibility, FREITAG advertised the projects on its high-traffic website freitag.ch.
