Analyst Opinion

The Crowdfunding market in Armenia has been steadily growing in recent years, driven by customer preferences for innovative funding options, the rise of technology platforms, and favorable local special circumstances. Customer preferences in Armenia have shifted towards crowdfunding as a means to support various projects and initiatives.

This is partly due to the convenience and accessibility offered by online platforms, which allow individuals to contribute to causes they believe in from the comfort of their own homes. Crowdfunding also provides a unique opportunity for Armenians to engage with and support local entrepreneurs and creative projects, fostering a sense of community and pride. One of the key trends in the Crowdfunding market in Armenia is the emergence of platforms catering to specific industries or causes.

For example, there are platforms dedicated to supporting social initiatives, arts and culture projects, and small business ventures. This trend reflects the diverse interests and passions of the Armenian population, as well as the growing recognition of the power of crowdfunding to drive positive change in society. Another trend in the market is the increasing use of rewards-based crowdfunding, where backers receive non-financial incentives in exchange for their contributions.

This model has gained popularity in Armenia as it allows individuals to feel more connected to the projects they support. By receiving tangible rewards such as products, services, or experiences, backers feel a sense of ownership and involvement in the success of the venture. Local special circumstances in Armenia have also played a role in the development of the crowdfunding market.

The country has a vibrant startup ecosystem, with a growing number of entrepreneurs seeking alternative funding options. Crowdfunding provides a viable alternative to traditional financing methods, allowing startups to raise capital and validate their ideas without relying solely on banks or investors. Additionally, the Armenian diaspora has been instrumental in supporting crowdfunding campaigns in the country.

Many Armenians living abroad feel a strong connection to their homeland and actively contribute to projects that promote Armenian culture, heritage, and economic development. This global network of support has helped to amplify the impact of crowdfunding campaigns in Armenia and attract international attention to local initiatives. Underlying macroeconomic factors have also contributed to the growth of the crowdfunding market in Armenia.

The country has experienced economic challenges in recent years, including high unemployment rates and limited access to traditional financing options. Crowdfunding provides an alternative avenue for individuals and businesses to raise funds, stimulating economic activity and driving innovation. In conclusion, the Crowdfunding market in Armenia is experiencing steady growth due to customer preferences for innovative funding options, the emergence of industry-specific platforms, and the support of the Armenian diaspora.

These trends, combined with local special circumstances and underlying macroeconomic factors, have created a fertile environment for crowdfunding to thrive in Armenia.

Methodology

Data coverage:

The data encompasses B2C enterprises. Figures are based on transaction values / revenues / assets under management and user data of relevant services and products offered within the FinTech market.

Modeling approach / Market size:

Market sizes are determined through a combined top-down and bottom-up approach, building on a specific rationale for each market segment. As a basis for evaluating markets, we use annual financial reports of key players, industry reports, third-party reports, publicly available databases, and survey results from primary research (e.g., the Statista Global Consumer Survey). In addition, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific associations, such as GDP, consumer spending, population, internet penetration, smartphone penetration, credit card penetration, and online banking penetration. This data helps us estimate the market size for each country individually.

Forecasts:

In our forecasts, we apply diverse forecasting techniques. The selection of forecasting techniques is based on the behavior of the relevant market. For example, the S-curve function and exponential trend smoothing are well suited for forecasting digital products and services due to the non-linear growth of technology adoption.

Additional notes:

The market is updated twice a year in case market dynamics change. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war is considered at a country-specific level.
