520 3  Launched on April 28, 2009, Kickstarter is a Public Benefit Corporation based in Brooklyn, New York. It is a global crowdfunding platform that helps to fund new creative projects and ideas through direct support from individuals (backers) from around the world who pledge money to bring these projects and ideas to life. Kickstarter supports many different kinds of projects. Everything from films, games, and music to art, design, and technology. Funding on Kickstarter is based on the all-or-nothing model. Backers who pledge their support towards a particular project won't be charged unless the funding goal has been reached. Successfully funded projects reward their backers with one-of-a-kind experiences, e.g., limited editions, or copies of the creative work being produced. The study includes two datasets: 1) Kickstarter Project dataset and 2) Backer Location dataset. The Kickstarter Project dataset contains detailed information about all Kickstarter projects starting in 2009 through 2020, including the project title, project category and subcategory, project location (city, state (for U.S. based projects), and country), funding goal in original and U.S. currencies, pledged amount (in dollars), number of backers for each project, et cetera The Kickstarter Project dataset includes data on 506,199 successful and unsuccessful funded projects. The Backer Location dataset includes information about backers' country and state, and the total amount pledged for each geographic location.Cf: http://doi.org/10.3886/ICPSR38050.v1
